Mobile Phone Technology Engagement in EFL Classroom

Abstract

Nowadays, it seems mobile phones are used everywhere by everyone, which leads to the obvious questions: Can mobile phones be used in language classes? How can mobile phone technology support the second language learning? The answers are positive: Mobile phone technology can be effectively engaged in EFL (English as a foreign language) classroom. It proves to be both reasonable in theory and feasible in practice. This paper makes an analysis of the modern English language teaching methodology and discusses how language teachers can have their students use mobile phones to best assist English language learning in the EFL classroom.
