Investigating Efl Students’ Perspectives Of Ict Use In Reading And Writing Skills

Abstract

Modern technologies including Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have brought profound changes to higher education. Thus, this study investigates EFL students’ perceptions of ICT use in reading and writing. Accordingly, these research questions have been raised: 1) Are EFL students aware of the potentials of ICT use in reading and writing? 2) How do they use ICTs to enhance these literacy skills? Then, an online questionnaire has been administered to 69 master one students from two universities- Annaba and Guelma. The obtained results have showed that these learners are aware of ICTs significance in developing reading and writing skills and they use different applications, sites and platforms to enhance these literacy skills.
