To increase L2 competency in both receptive and productive skills—this study investigates how Computer-Assisted Language Learning (CALL) applications may be improved through Communicative Language Teaching (CLT). Previous studies have tended to focus on specific skills or technology, ignoring a comprehensive perspective of CALL’s influence within CLT. Recent research on CALL integration in CLT was reviewed comprehensively, with an emphasis on its pros and cons, and best practices. Included were studies conducted after 2000 on the use of digital tools for CLT language learning. Trends and gaps in the literature were found through data analysis. Conclusions show that there isn’t much thorough research looking at how CALL affects each of the four language skills in CLT. But new developments in CALL technologies, such as intelligent conversation agents and gamified applications, hold out hope for raising L2 competency. For successful integration, it is emphasized that teacher preparation, interesting CALL activities that are in line with CLT principles, and frequent assessments of CALL’s efficacy are essential. The present study highlights the necessity for more research to do a thorough analysis of the effects of CALL on all language abilities within CLT.
