Technology in low-resource contexts
The ‘digital divide’• developed vs developing countries• urban vs rural areas• in classrooms • at home• effective vs non-effective use (Yang & Egbert 2004)
• teacher skills (Warschauer 2011)
• digital natives/ residents (Prensky 2001 / White 2008)

Technology in low-resource contexts
Agree or disagree…?
1) You need the latest technologies to carry out
‘good’ ICT-based lessons or activities.
2) Technology is too expensive to use in EFL
classes in many contexts.
3) Using technologies effectively requires a non-
traditional approach to teaching.

It’s good to know about other countries. I hope we
can do it with other countries.
We learnt a lot of things about
Argentina & had a great deal of fun
It was very interesting but I blamed myself that I
haven’t shared in that interview
She had a different language
