Literature Review
The use of technology and virtuality to facilitate language learning has been increasingly
common in recent years. This has led to the development of various online platforms and
tools that can be used to support language teaching and learning. The research on the impact
of virtuality on English language learners (ELLs) in rural areas is still in its infancy, and there
is a need for further research in this area. software implementation educational in the teaching
of students, especially in the use of virtual classes is essential for the improvement of
Research has found that virtuality has a positive impact on language learners in rural areas,
as it provides a platform for interaction and a more interactive learning experience. For
example, one study found that virtuality can help facilitate interaction between learners and
teachers, which can lead to increased communication and better learning outcomes (Wang &
Cheng, 2017). Additionally, research has suggested that virtuality can help create a more
personalized learning environment, which can be beneficial for ELLs in rural areas (Jiang et
al., 2020).
Recent research has explored the use of virtuality in English language teaching for young
learners in rural areas. For example, O'Neill (2020) conducted a study that explored the
effects of virtual English language teaching on rural participants. The study found that virtual

Simultaneously, Kliger (2020) conducted a study that examined how virtual English
language teaching can be used to facilitate interactions between rural students and their peers.
The study found that virtual English language teaching can be used to foster collaborative
learning and to create meaningful connections between rural learners and their peers.
In addition, a study conducted by Smith (2020) explored the impact of virtual English
language teaching on rural learners. The study found that virtual English language teaching
can be used to foster collaboration and increase student engagement. Additionally, the study
found that virtual English language teaching can be used to create a sense of community
However, there are also certain factors that can affect the effectiveness of virtuality in
language learning in rural areas. For example, research has found that poor internet
connection can be a barrier to effective virtuality-based language learning in rural areas (Liu
et al., 2018). Additionally, lack of access to technology, such as computers and tablets, can
also be a hindrance to effective virtuality-based language learning in rural areas (Liu et al.,
2018). Furthermore, there is also evidence to suggest that cultural norms can have an impact
on the effectiveness of virtuality-based language learning in rural areas (Liu et al., 2018).
In summary, the research suggests that virtuality can have a positive impact on language
learning in rural areas, as it can help facilitate interaction between learners and teachers.
However, there are also certain factors that can affect the effectiveness of virtuality in
language learning in rural areas, such as poor internet connection, lack of access to
technology, and cultural norms. Therefore, further research is needed to understand the
factors that affect interaction of students in English online education in rural areas.
