2024-05-20T14:28:03+07:00

This paper aims to present a concept for designing a web application to support foreign language learning in response to the current trend of self-directed learning through digital technology. It discusses the definitions and differences between websites and web applications, the process of developing web applications using the ADDIE instructional design model, and the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Furthermore, it synthesizes the ADDIE model with the SDLC to ensure the effective development and maintenance of web applications. An example of web application design is provided, incorporating the communicative language approach and project-based language learning, serving as a guideline for developing web applications to promote foreign language skills in the digital era.
