At present, new technologies are very popular especially among young people and tools such as mobile phones and computers are a big influence in their everyday lives. Therefore, language teachers have begun to use Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) during their lessons in order to motivate students and get them involved actively in the classroom.
The aim of this project is to find out if ITCs boost secondary school students’ motivation in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom. With that purpose, (1) learners will use their mobile phones, laptops, and/or tablets in order to complete two online tasks (i.e. ‘WebQuest’ and ‘Kahoot’); and (2) students will also complete a ‘Self-Assessment Questionnaire’. Expected results show that students involve actively during the sessions and learn faster with the use of these online resources.
Finally, these expected results may make evident that the students who participated in this study might become more motivated because they enjoy working in a digital context with the aim of learning English. [-]
