Interaction is an essential component in foreign languages classes. Sociocultural theory developed by Vygotsky and his colleagues emphasizes the roles of teachers in assisting and guiding students to develop their potential in language use. Besides, peer interaction helps learners advance in their language skills and learning strategies as well as solve problems effectively. Peer scaffolding is considered to enable learners of lower level of language competence to move to higher levels. Classroom artifacts such as textbooks, computers, software, and other learning tools interact with learners to bring about changes in their knowledge and understanding. They also play a part in monitoring learner’s behaviours and draw their attention to the assigned tasks.
