Integration of Technology among Saudi EFL Teachers
Almalki, Amal
English Language Teaching, v13 n8 p160-167 2020
In the field of education, technology is currently considered a new trend. This study aims to examine the factors that affect the integration of new technologies in EFL classrooms. Factors considered include teacher's age, teacher's level of technological proficiency, and teacher's perception of technology. To achieve this, the study involved a questionnaire consisting of 21 items and a total of 38 Saudi EFL teachers participated in it. The results indicate that there is no significant relationship between teacher age and technology integration. However, both teachers' level of proficiency in technology and teacher's perception of technology were significantly related to technology integration in Saudi EFL classrooms.
