One of the main objectives of teaching English is for students to acquire intercultural
communicative competence. This competence is the skill that EFL learners must acquire in
order to be able to conduct a sensible and contextually appropriate conversation with speakers
from other cultures. Having the ability to apologize is one of the elements of this competence.
In order to achieve this competence, it is essential that students receive a rich, authentic and
meaningful input, so that they can appreciate and make use of apology strategies in real-life

classroom to complete the learning process of their EFL pupils. Technology has developed

tool to conduct the activities constituting this work. [-]
