The purpose of this study is to analyse what is happening at schools regarding the integration and use of information and communication technologies (ICT) and to examine teachers’ perceptions about what teaching and learning processes can be improved through the use of ICT. A multiple-case-study research methodology was applied. From a previous exploratory research, four different types of schools were determined. Data show there is a widespread view that ICT in teaching favours several teaching and learning processes. In particular, it shows that the contribution of ICT to the improvement of teaching and learning processes is higher in the schools that have integrated ICT as an innovation factor. To attain this highest level implies that a school not only has to modernise the technological tools, but also has to change the teaching models: the teacher’s role, issues regarding classroom organisational, the teaching and learning processes, and the interaction mechanisms.

Abstract The use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in teaching and learning foreign languages has risen sharply among the educational community. Teachers access and implement innovations without always realizing their full implications for them and their students. However, this is not necessarily a negative thing, because if no one used innovations, little progresses would be made and there would be nothing to evaluate. The article presents certain features of ICT that can be used to good advantage in a rich learning environment, and the use of video as an ICT tool in the foreign language class. The paper also discusses the role of the teacher in implementing technologies and we argue that it is the teacher, not the technology who determines the quality of the learning and teaching. There are people who are afraid that the teacher’s role would be compromised if we integrate information communication technologies in education; however we militate for a ‘techno-humanistic’ system, in which teachers, learners and technology would form a lasting meaningful alliance.

Una sociedad en constante cambio tecnológico exige profesionales de la enseñanza en formación continua. Entre las principales competencias docentes que debe adquirir actualmente el profesorado, durante el proceso de formación inicial, podemos destacar el uso educativo de las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) y  el trabajo en equipo. A través de esta experiencia de innovación centrada en el desarrollo de una dinámica de trabajo fundamentada en el aprendizaje cooperativo y la utilización del programa Courselab, se exige al alumnado ciertas destrezas específicas en el dominio, tanto del PC en su conjunto, como de la navegación a través de Internet y de la capacidad de trabajo y de resolución en equipo. En definitiva, se pretende completar la formación de los futuros  docentes en entornos TIC, para que puedan desempeñar procesos de enseñanza/aprendizaje que respondan, verdaderamente, a los intereses y motivaciones del alumnado y puedan contribuir a la mejora del éxito escolar. Los resultados de este estudio indican que estos profesores en formación, demandan el uso de herramientas similares que les motiven y se adecuen a los procesos de enseñanza aprendizaje, concluyendo con una valoración positiva tanto de la experiencia como del propio desarrollo de la asignatura.       A technological society in permanent evolution requires teaching professionals with continuous training. Among the main teaching skills that teachers must currently acquire  during process of initial training, we emphasize the educational use of Information and Communication Technologies  (in Spanish its acronym is TIC) and teamwork. Through this innovation experience focused on developing a workflow based on cooperative learning using CourseLab application, specific student skills are required in PC use,  navigation through Internet and ability for teamwork and problem resolution. Definitely, we pretend to complete training of future teachers in ICT environments, so they could perform teaching / learning processes  in order to match students interests and motivations, and may contribute to improvement of school success. Results of this study indicate that training teachers demand the use of similar tools to motivate themselves and adapt to teaching and learning processes. We conclude with a positive assessment of both experience and development of the subject.

The purpose of this article is to analyze the introduction and use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the special disciplines of higher education, to teach teachers how to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning through information and communication technologies. This article discusses the issues of improving the knowledge and skills of students through the use of modern information and communication technologies in the preparation of specialists, increasing students' interest in the educational process and the ability to apply their knowledge in practice in the future. The focus is on the need to develop appropriate strategies for a new educational role and, in addition, to enhance the role of learners in integrating information and communication technologies into the educational process. The role and perspective of the teachers was very important, highlighting them as key players in the process. The data show that there is a belief that the use of information and communication technologies in the educational process will help increase the effectiveness of education and facilitate the organization of the educational process. In particular, it shows that the contribution of information and communication technologies to the improvement of the educational process in educational institutions, where information and communication technologies is an innovative factor, is high. Achieving this high level means that the educational institution must not only modernize technological means, but also change the models of teaching.

Gain Access

В образовательном сообществе резко возросло использование информационных и коммуникационных технологий (ИКТ) в преподавании и изучении иностранных языков. Учителя получают доступ к инновациям и внедряют их, не всегда осознавая их значение для самих себя и своих учеников. В статье представлены некоторые особенности ИКТ, которые можно использовать учебной среде, а также использование видео в качестве инструмента ИКТ на уроках иностранного языка. В данной статье также обсуждается роль учителя во внедрении технологий, именно учитель, а не технология, определяет качество обучения и преподавания. Роль учителя будет поставлена под угрозу, если мы интегрируем информационно-коммуникационные технологии в образование; однако в «техно-гуманистической» системе, учитель, ученики и технологии образуют прочный и значимый союз. The use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in teaching and learning foreign languages has increased dramatically in the educational community. Teachers gain access to innovations and implement them, not always realizing their importance for themselves and their students. The article presents some of the ICT features that can be used in a learning environment, as well as the use of video as an ICT tool in foreign language lessons. This article also discusses the role of the teacher in the implementation of technology, it is the teacher, not technology, that determines the quality of teaching and learning. The role of the teacher will be compromised if we integrate information and communication technologies into education; however, in a “techno-humanistic” system, teacher, students and technology form a strong and meaningful union.

Modern English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers are required to be competent in solving problems occurred in teaching and learning processes. They should be conscious of up-to-date information about new approaches, methods and techniques, as well as, they should be capable in use of information and communication technologies (ICT) and of course should work on improvement of their language components. So that EFL teachers could succeed in those goals, they are enrolled to in-service teacher trainings (INSET).

Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar algumas reflexões sobre as contribuições do conceito de multiletramentos e do uso das tecnologias de informação e comunicação (TICs) na modalidade de Educação a Distância (EAD). Para a apresentação dessas reflexões pretende-se considerar os pressupostos teóricos advindos das teorias de letramento, mais especificamente dos multiletramentos. A associação de imagens, áudio e vídeo, com ou sem textos escritos, especialmente com as TICs, passam a exigir novas formas de letramento dos  seus usuários, uma vez que a construção de significados  ocorre por meio de modos variados (multimodais). Em outras palavras, as TICs conduzem as reflexões sobre letramento, ampliando o conceito para os multiletramentos, considerados fundamentais para os processos de ensino e de aprendizagem na contemporaneidade em todos os níveis, justamente por considerar o impacto advindo da utilização dos recursos tecnológicos que têm desencadeado novos olhares para o espaço da educação a distância. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: educação a distância; multiletramentos; TICs; linguagem; comunicação. Abstract: This paper aims to present some reflections on the contributions of the multiliteracy concept and the use of information and communication technologies ( ICTs) in the distance education modality. For the presentation of these reflections, it is intended to consider the theoretical assumptions originated from literacy theories, more specifically from multiliteracies. The association of images, audio and video, with or without  written texts , especially with the ICTs,  new ways of literacy of  their  users are required, once the construction of meanings begins to happen by means of varied modes (multimodalities). In other words, the ICTs lead to reflections on literacy, expanding the concept to the multiliteracies regarded as fundamental to the teaching and learning processes in the contemporary world at all levels, precisely by considering the impact resulting from the use of technological resources that has triggered new visions for the distance education area. KEY WORDS: distance learning; multiliteracies; ICTs; language;communication.
