Abstract
In this chapter an instructional format, Peer-Based Intervention (PBI) using computer keystroke logging is investigated as a computer technology to enhance language acquisition. In PBI, a process-oriented approach is taken, in which noticing, reflection and language awareness are central concepts of language learning. The method aims to promote learning through individualized reflection and social interaction. A retrospective focus on the evolution of a foreign language text is used as a basis for reflection and discussion. This period of reflection and discussion opens up paths for both individual and peer-based noticing and learning.
