To this end, the term literacy has become widely related not only to reading and writing, but also to any form of knowledge acquisition and learning. New literacies is not a new concept itself, but rather it addresses constantly changing strategies, tools, and technologies involved in the process of learning and interacting with other people. “New literacies” is an evolving term that faces constant change as new technologies and strategies emerge (Cammack, Coiro, Kinzer, & Leu, 2004). Therefore, it is important to evaluate new language software within a new literacies framework. Language, now more than ever, is fundamental in communicating and in interacting with others online and face to face.
Since online communication and digital technology have become new literacies in our lives, new software has been developed to enhance learning and interaction among users (Buckleitner, 1999).
