Technology has impacted every field of life, and Education sector is no exception. It has seen seismic changes off-late. The traditional classroom teaching-learning process involved teachers and students using the black-board approach. But, the past years have seen a change in dynamics of this process. Technology has crept in and has profoundly changed it for better. On one hand, when traditional classrooms had teachers, students and books as players, the current classroom has teachers, students, robots, e-books, laptops and books as the players. Today’s classrooms have enabled the teaching-learning process cross boundaries in the form of e-lectures and tutorials. Massive amount of Information is readily available for the process. Also, a shift from “Teacher-centric” to “Student Centric” can be seen in the current scenario. Several technologies have been key-players in revolutionizing the education sector, but the focus of this paper is concentrated in exploiting the applications of Blockchain and IoT in the sector and identifying the areas where they prove to be beneficial. An extensive literature survey shall be done to understand, and identify how these technologies are a solution to major educational problems. The teaching learning process needs to be understood with respect to various parameters: change in process, change in players, change in outcomes derived, and others. The associated challenges shall also be identified. A detailed analysis of these enables us to conclude that these technologies, can revolutionize the education sector for better in future, particularly Blockchain is young, but, owing to the benefits derived from it, further research and adoption shall for surely change the teaching-learning process.

Comunicarse de manera efectiva y apropiada en una lengua extranjera (FL) implica dominar las cuatro habilidades lingüísticas, comprensión y expresión escritas (CE-EE) y comprensión y expresión oral (CO-EO). Sin embargo, no se desarrollan al mismo nivel durante el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje en entornos formales. El desarrollo de la expresión oral en FFL es a menudo un desafío para los profesores debido a condicionantes tales como la falta de motivación y sentimientos de inhibición, falta de seguridad o confianza en sí mismo del alumno. A estos, se suman otros como falta de tiempo, grandes grupos de alumnos o vacíos metodológicos y evaluativos que complican la práctica de esta competencia en el aula. Este trabajo presenta un proyecto educativo implementado en la clase FLE donde la Francofonía, el uso de las TIC y el aprendizaje colaborativo son fundamentales para desarrollar la expresión oral del aprendientee al mismo tiempo que ayuda a fortalecer sus habilidades personales. Communicating effectively and appropriately in a SL implies mastering the four language skills, i.e. written comprehension and expression and oral comprehension and expression. However, not all develop equally during the teaching-learning process in formal contexts.The development of oral expression in FFL is often a challenge for teachers and students due to conditions such as lack of motivation and feelings of inhibition of the students, lack of security or self-confidence. To these are added others such as lack of time, large groups of students or methodological and evaluative gaps that contribute significantly to hinder the practice of this competence in the classroom. This paper presents a teaching project implemented in the FFL classroom where Francophonie, the use of ICT and collaborative learning are key to developing the oral expression of the learner contributing to reinforcing their personal skills. Communiquer efficacement et de manière appropriée dans une langue étrangère (LE) implique de maîtriser les quatre compétences linguistiques, la compréhension et expression écrites (CE-EE) et la compréhension et expression orales (CO-EO). Cependant, elles ne se développent pas au même niveau au cours du processus d’enseignement-apprentissage dans des contextes formels. Le développement de l’expression orale en FLE est souvent un défi pour les enseignants en raison de conditions tellles que le manque de motivation et les sentiments d’inhibition de l’élève, le manque de sécurité ou de confiance en soi. À ceux-ci s’ajoutent d’autres comme le manque de temps, de grands groupes d’étudiants ou des lacunes méthodologiques et évaluatives qui réduisent la pratique de cette compétence en classe. Cet ouvrage presente un projet pédagogique mis en oeuvre en classe FLE où la Francophonie, l’utilisation des TIC et l’apprentissage collaboratif sont essentiels pour développer l’expression orale de l’apprenant en même temps qu’elle contribue à renforcer ses compétences personnelles.
