This document discusses the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in teaching English as a foreign language. It notes that ICTs can help promote learning by making it easier to create, process, and disseminate information without barriers. ICTs are transforming education by changing how teaching and learning occur and defining new roles for teachers and students. Reasons to use ICTs include developing students' digital literacy, innovating new learning opportunities, and reducing school failure through innovative teaching practices. However, ICTs also present challenges like distractions, time consumption, unreliable information, and issues of addiction, isolation, and fatigue for students and teachers.
