“…Summing up the article by viewing this pedagogic innovation from a research perspective, I stress the following observation. Although there has been an increasing number of studies on the impact of Perusall on language-related learning, most of them centre around these areas: student engagement (Suhre et al, 2019), reading motivation (Li and Li, 2023), collaborative reading, reading skills development in general and critical thinking specifically in students in middle school (Issa et al, 2021) and in higher education (Cecchinato and Foschi, 2020; Fazza, 2021; Kohnke and Har, 2022; Lee and Yeong, 2018; Miller et al, 2018; Woodward and Neunaber, 2020). It would be pedagogically enriching if more attention were given to investigating students’ language gains in teacher education and language courses to examine how Perusall and other similar COAPs could promote literacy and reading skills development.…”
