The implementation of ICT in the second-cycle history of the English language module at the Universitat de València

Abstract

In this article, after a short overview of the use of ICT in English Studies at the Universitat de València and the conditions I think teachers should comply with when planning, designing, creating, monitoring and evaluating activities using ICT, I detail two of the activities I have carried out using new technologies in the obligatory fourth-year module History of the English Language. Although this has traditionally been a very theoretical subject, the activities introduced through the medium of ICT have given it a more practical focus which attempts to give the students the opportunity to learn discipline-specific content, improve their English and acquire subject-specific and general competencies.
