The compiled data was then analyzed by applying interactive model. The finding shows that teachers have positive views on the integration of technology in EFL classroom. Stated benefits of technology integration on enabling the development of students’ 21st century skills, teachers are highly demanded to encourage students’ active participation by engaging them through meaningful learning activities and use of technology simultaneously. Therefore, teachers should put high attention on the process of selecting, preparing, integrating, assessing, and evaluating types of technology being employed in classroom instruction.           Corresponding author: Firima Zona TanjungDOI: 10.24071/ijiet.2020.040204Â
