It has been mandatory for the teachers to blend digital content with existing materials. However, it has not been easy to employ authentic-digital materials due to some flaws in the education system (i.e., in developing countries like Bangladesh). In addition to that, the unavailability of technological equipment in most schools, together with teachers’ insufficient practical expertise, is a bar to language teaching and learning. Regardless of the drawbacks in the application of ICT in ELT in practice, nothing better than technology is found to set up a positive learning environment for language learners.
