The Role of Digital Technologies in Teaching and Learning of English Language

Abstract This study offers the findings of an investigation into the use of digital tools in language classrooms with a focus on the English language. The goals included discovering how often and in what ways students use digital communication to learn English, as well as exploring the types of digital communication students use to learn English. Finding out what kinds of digital communication students use and how they use them to study English was another goal, as was identifying the barriers that students confront when attempting to use such tools for language study. The research strategy for this study will be descriptive analytical. The method is an exploratory sequential design in which qualitative data is gathered analysed to draw conclusions about the relationship between two variables. The findings indicate that digital communication has an impact on language development, particularly English, if the necessary resources are made available technical issues are resolved.
