Abstract
Education is one of the fields in human life that has been influenced by Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Learners may now employ a variety of ICT tools, including computers, projectors, and the internet, to facilitate their learning process. The aim of this research is to identify which ICT tools are used to acquire the English language and their benefits. It also aims at examining the challenges they face while using such tools. One questionnaire has been posted online to third year students of English at Larbi Ben M’hidi University, being the only research tool used in the present study. The data gathered indicated that most of the students use ICT tools in their learning process. Moreover, students show that these technologies are means which help them develop their learning four skills. The findings also revealed that the weakness of the network is the main problem that they had. Because ICT is a real aid in improving the English Foreign Language learning process, we recommend students to use ICT inside and outside classrooms to boost their English Language skills in a simple and effective way. Moreover, we recommend teachers to encourage their students to use those tools appropriately. In addition, universities should give an importance to ICT tools and they should be equipped with essential and necessary technologies.
