“…With a retrospective look into language teaching methods from the past to the present, it can be discerned that different approaches to language instruction have been replacing each other since the learning needs of the time change. Even though methods to learn or teach languages are earnestly embraced in their heydays, they ultimately fall into disfavor as they fail to keep up with the ever-changing needs of learners, which is particularly the case for today's digital learners (Zock et al, 2015).…”

The invention of the microchip and access to digital devices has altered the way people perceive education and how it is supposed to be practiced. New generations of students, who are the digital natives of today, are more than ready to be educated through the advancements offered by digital learning environments. Language learning is not an exception to these fast-paced technological improvements, and the use of technological devices is slowly altering the way students practice and learn languages. With the advancement of available digital devices, computer-assisted learning has become a reality for today’s learners. Within the context of this research study, an accomplished learner’s think-aloud process and autoethnography function as data to internalize how a learner can transform from a language learner to a language expert through autonomous computer-assisted language learning strategies. This ethnographic study attempts to reveal the keen language learning attitude and self-invented digital learning techniques of an autonomous learner of multiple foreign languages. Thus, it explores and exemplifies the possibility of independent and autonomous language learning without the need for formal education.

The analysis of the frontier issues of the English language teaching method in China is of great guidance for English language teaching. Based on the ontology model of English teaching domain, the knowledge map of English teaching in colleges and universities is constructed by fusing heterogeneous English subject data from multiple sources. Firstly, we obtain domain knowledge from relevant websites and existing documents through web crawlers and other techniques and clean the data based on BERT model; then, we use Word2Vec to judge the similarity between the research directions of characters and solve the entity alignment problem; based on the scientific knowledge map theory, we count the frequency of keywords in each year and analyze them to describe the association and union between keywords. It can explain the current situation and trend, rise and fall, disciplinary growth points, and breakthroughs of ELT. Through keyword analysis, the hot issues mainly revolve around ELT, English teaching, college English, grammar-translation method, curriculum reform, and so forth, to realize the quick query and resource statistics of ELT basic data, in order to promote the subsequent English discipline assessment work to be completed more efficiently.
