The Role of Educational Technology in the Language Classroom

Khawlah Ahmed Tharwat M. EL-Sakran

Subject area: Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities  ·  Area of research: Educational technology

Abstract

From the earliest stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, the need to incorporate and utilize technology in all aspects of all teaching and learning became apparent to all involved in academia. This need for technology would not just be a band-aid to help us across one or two tricky semesters. Instead, this embracing and recognition of the modern role of technology would be a transformative surgery that could lead to fundamental improvements in student performance and learning. The changes we have witnessed take many forms, from using Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and learning management systems (LMS) to adopting a wide variety of automated tools and forums suitable for blended learning (BL) environments and teaching approaches. Research which assesses the effectiveness of these approaches and associated technologies on student learning and performance post Covid era are surfacing. Such research deals with LMS?s such as Blackboard; however, integrating such technology in classroom practices is no simple task. While the prevailing idea is that technology integration transforms classroom practices by facilitating teaching and learning in more creative and innovative ways, such a conceptualization and underlying assumption needs to be examined. With the rapid technological advances, and the dire need to use technology in post pandemic contexts, educators need to become aware of such technology and how it can be utilized to transform teaching and learning and prepare learners with the 21st century skills needed. This said, educators need to also be aware that incorporating such technology, comes with challenges. This paper discusses LMS?s and examines their effectiveness on student performance and presents the challenges, practices, and approaches relevant to the successful integration of ICTs in the language classroom context.

Keywords

Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), learning management systems (LMS), teaching, technology. Keywords: ICT, learning management systems, language classroom, online learning.

      abstract = {From the earliest stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, the need to incorporate and utilize technology in all aspects of all teaching and learning became apparent to all involved in academia. This need for technology would not just be a band-aid to help us across one or two tricky semesters. Instead, this embracing and recognition of the modern role of technology would be a transformative surgery that could lead to fundamental improvements in student performance and learning. The changes we have witnessed take many forms, from using Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and learning management systems (LMS) to adopting a wide variety of automated tools and forums suitable for blended learning (BL) environments and teaching approaches. Research which assesses the effectiveness of these approaches and associated technologies on student learning and performance post Covid era are surfacing. Such research deals with LMS?s such as Blackboard; however, integrating such technology in classroom practices is no simple task. While the prevailing idea is that technology integration transforms classroom practices by facilitating teaching and learning in more creative and innovative ways, such a conceptualization and underlying assumption needs to be examined. With the rapid technological advances, and the dire need to use technology in post pandemic contexts, educators need to become aware of such technology and how it can be utilized to transform teaching and learning and prepare learners with the 21st century skills needed. This said, educators need to also be aware that incorporating such technology, comes with challenges. This paper discusses LMS?s and examines their effectiveness on student performance and presents the challenges, practices, and approaches relevant to the successful integration of ICTs in the language classroom context.},
