21st century students are different from older students.
They live in an increasingly growing digital age.
![Page 4: ICT in The EFL classroom : Why and How](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/54794abdb4af9f22148b461f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
language is defined as a system for communicating. As ELT we should :
increase students’ desire to express themselves effectively and appropriately.
develop their meta-cognitive strategies to help them organize, plan, and make decisions about their learning.
help them continue using the target language outside the classroom

To do so most effectively
teachers should make sure:

-the starting point matches the students existing expertise (Vygotsky 1962, Zone of Proximal Development)as well as the learners’ values and concerns.

-The students have
a degree of control
of what they learn
and how they learn
(different learning
styles).

All that is done against a background ofcontinued dialogue with peers and mentors/teachers/
community ( social constructivism, G. Siemens “connectivism”)

“ Today’s students are no longer the pupils our educational system was designed to teach” Prensky 2001 Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants.

ICT integration in Education
and in EFL teaching/learning
in particular is the 1st step
towards living up to
the 21st century students needs
because
“ the student is the heart of
the matter”

Facts:
Today’s grads on average spend -less than 5.000 hours of their lives reading
-over 10.000 hours playing games
- over 20.000 hours watching TV. (according to the video)

Computers, video games,
e-mails, the Internet,
mp3/4 players,
tablets, cell phones, and instant
messages are integral part of
their lives.

…So what?!!
![Page 18: ICT in The EFL classroom : Why and How](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/54794abdb4af9f22148b461f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The conclusion is that our
students, Prensky holds,
process information differently
from their predecessors…
Their thinking patterns have
changed…
And I believe that’s the case!
![Page 19: ICT in The EFL classroom : Why and How](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/54794abdb4af9f22148b461f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The answers to the three
questions that he raised
lead us to conclude that

If we want to teach and engage
the digital natives,we
have to
thinkabout ways
to

translate and changeour methodology and pedagogy
to meet learners’ expectations

consider that
digital natives :
![Page 23: ICT in The EFL classroom : Why and How](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/54794abdb4af9f22148b461f/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
are used to receiving information really fast
function best when they are networked
![Page 24: ICT in The EFL classroom : Why and How](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/54794abdb4af9f22148b461f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
They thrive in instant gratification and reward
They prefer games to “serious” work

ICT
is the tool educators should consider
usingwhile
making lesson plans
![Page 26: ICT in The EFL classroom : Why and How](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/54794abdb4af9f22148b461f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
ICT is a source of contextualised learning.
Learning is more likely to take place when information can be contextually relevant and can be put to immediate use
(Lave and vagner 1991)

ICTuse enables students to access
relevant vocabulary and expressions via their mobile phonesduring
a lesson, or while reading a text

Reading the script to record for
a podcast from her mobile phone.

ICTgives students control over their
learning. They become autonomous, independent learners, and ultimately lifelong learners.
It exposes students to various life-like critical thinking situations.
![Page 31: ICT in The EFL classroom : Why and How](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/54794abdb4af9f22148b461f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
ICTfor EFL learners
provides more exposure to the target language,more practice,
more time on task,more opportunities for students
to listen, speak, and develop their
communicative competence.
