Description

Technology has become an integral part of teaching and learning in classrooms around the world. Teachers are nurturing 21st century learners who grow up with computers, gadgets, and internet access. Technology has been an extension of their lives, including their academic pursuits. Technology is of much value for EFL learners. Technology has offered opportunities for learners to access wide-range information. Technology is strongly linked with learner autonomy, where students can learn independently in their pace or space. It also offers learners more opportunities to collaborate with friends. When the information is not scarce for learners, teachers are challenged to create innovations and provide learners with exciting learning experiences through technology. We can enhance language learning through various digital media. Language teachers can use the Internet to access wealth range of authentic resources, materials, and tasks. Technology also allows teachers to communicate with students outside the classroom walls. Designed for English language teachers and learners, this covers both theoretical and practical knowledge of using these technical media in language learning. Besides elaborating on a general overview of teaching media as well as its integration in language learning, the book also discusses some practical use of digital tools. Hopefully, this book can help EFL learners and teachers reap the benefits of technology in the classroom.
