  • Abstract
    The connection between philology and technology is no longer considered unusual. The use of technology is being adopted in foreign language learning. In this context, the author wishes to present the good practice of using computers in teaching English as a foreign language. The article thus gives detailed examples of this use while teaching different language skills: reading, writing, speaking and listening. In order to reinforce the postulate of the benefits of using technology in foreign language learning, a survey has been conducted among EFL students at the College for Information Technologies, Zagreb. A comparison of survey results from 2010 will also be shown.
