Abstract

The teaching and learning of English as a foreign language has shifted its approach and attention as a result of technological application. It has widely changed the practice of education in general as well as English language teaching in particular. It influences students’ participation, the way the lesson is delivered, the way language is studied in and outside classroom, and it greatly improves the learning process and the relationship between the teacher and the students (Šafranj, 2013; Fuster & Clavel, 2010; Chambers & O’Sullivan, 2004). It has positive effects on learners’ attitude, thinking skills, autonomous learning and their confidence building.
