The 21st century brought and is still bringing along new innovations. Phones and computers have gotten their places in our daily lives incredibly easily, and the globalized world is completely dependent on technology. The main question is, can these innovations be used for educational purposes?
The benefits of technology can be seen in almost every part of our lives. Technology has always been used and integrated into our classrooms with or without an internet connection since the second quarter of the 20th century and it has been increased drastically since then, especially after the widespread access to a working internet connection and the internet can be very useful when it is used properly. Online blogs, videos of online classes, vocabulary applications -namely on smartphones- and access to a great pool that is comprised of countless books help students and/or learners with their language learning.
Having said that, there are essential skills for learners and they are called 4Cs:
- Creativity and Innovation
- Critical Thinking and Problem Solving
- Communication
- Collaboration
