Why teachers need to integrate technology into
their teaching?
www.actfl.org
American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages
• Technology motivates learners and connects them to their passion.
• Learners want to create content, not consume it.
• Learners already use it.• Technology authentically connects
students to the world.• Technology will be a part of any learner’s
future: both personal and in the world of work.

Guidelines for Using Technology
www.actfl.org
American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages
• Use technology when it truly enhances and impacts student learning.
• Integrate technology into a well-designed lesson or unit: aligned with standards, clear outcomes and purpose and supported with appropriate assessments.
• Put the tools in the learners’ hands.• Make sure that the learners have a real
audience-more than just the teacher.• Always have a backup plan.
