Students' learning is a process in which students are exposed to new concepts and content. The process involves thinking (cognitive) and the application of what has been learned in terms of behaviours. To ensure learning takes place, changes are expected to be seen at the end of the day. In the language context, students learn a language in a formal setting for instance schools or other institutions. Even though a lot of them may have acquired the language, formal learning has to take place in order to understand a well-structured language.
ICT is such a phenomenon. In the past learning and teaching took place in a classroom environment between teacher and students while the instruments used were blackboards, chalks, big white papers and the list of traditional gadjets goes on. However, since the emergence of ICT, the teaching methodology had to go through a series of evolvement. Teachers and students have to be exposed to the new method of teaching and learning via this new technology, for instance using powerpoint, videos etc. This obviously will give more motivation to students since all of them were born in the technology era.
