Introduction

• Do you imagine all the possible effects of using

technology in classroom for learning English as second
language?
• Using technology in the classroom has many advantages
and disadvantages. These challenges force instructors to
be updated with all the necessary skills to apply these
tools in the educational field.
 Statement of the problem

• When students hear about technology, they feel motivated

and enthusiastic about using it; nevertheless, technology
has many advantages and disadvantages that affect not
only learners, but also instructors when they use it in the
ESL classroom.
• Find out the reasons why technology affects positive and
negative education and inform to the community how to
focus it assertively for the benefit of ESL learners is the
purpose of this research project.
Positive Negative
 Major Objective

The purpose of this study is to

discover the different effects of

and learning ESL.
 Minor Objectives

To identify the positives effects To discover the negatives effects of

of using technological resources using technological resources in the
in the process of teaching and
developing pronunciation skills. learning ESL.

To propose or find suggestions about how

the use of technology in the process of
teaching and learning ESL can improve
the students’ performance and their
production.
 Research Questions

What are the benefits of applying or using technology in

the process of teaching and learning ESL?

What are the negative effects of using technology in the

process of teaching and learning ESL?

What strategies are the best to take advantage of using

technology in the process of teaching and learning ESL?
 Literature Review
• Solano, Cabrera, Uhlehlova & Espinoza (2017).,
reported the results of their questionnaires, from which
students expressed that “they feel motivated and
interested in using the technological tools in classrooms in
general because they enable them to learn more
effectively according to their individual needs in an
interactive way and, therefore, students’ curiosity arises.
Additionally, technology provides teachers and students
with a dynamic learning process”.
 Literature Review
• “I too conclude that technology is beneficial in supporting
ELL students upon a number of conditions being met: 1.
The technology is intuitive and user friendly. 2. The
technology or program does not replace the role of the
teacher. 3 Teachers feel comfortable using the technology
themselves to best support the learner. This may mean
more training for teachers in the field of technology is
necessary. 4. The technology enhances the child’s
learning, rather than replaces a traditional practice that is
just as effective. Lecocq, C. (2015).
Literature Review
 Design of the Study
• The population of this study includes eleven students from
UDI University David. There are 8 women and 3 men.
These students possess a high-beginner level of the
target language (English) and their ages go from 20 to 25
years old.
• These students have received the same level of English
instruction in the subject of Pronunciation I. Besides, they
come from different social backgrounds.
 Instruments
The instruments that will be used to collect data in this
research are:

• Questionnaire: This instrument includes ten questions

that will be handed to the students in order to respond the
sounds they already know and the ones that they do not
recognize.
 Instruments
• Fill the gaps information worksheet: This instrument includes the
implementation of a listening activity through the usage of an online
Application, where the students will recognize the sound of the International
Phonetic Alphabet, and they will be able to repeat, produce sound and
pronounce words correctly.

• The participants of this had to listen to sound repetitions and complete an

information gap worksheet. The information gap worksheet contains the
same information they listened to previously.
 Instruments
• Checklist: This instrument includes a list of items that
represents behavior, motivation, and learning with and
without technology. The researcher will verify the option
that students demonstrate.
