Abstract

In 21st century, along with the rapid development of technology, the teachers begin to involve Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in EFL learning. However, the question is, “is the use of ICT really integrated or merely segregated outside the classroom?” This study was intended to answer that question. It was a case study which attempted to see the practice of integrating ICT in EFL classroom, particularly in Charis School―a private Junior High School in Malang, and to investigate the teacher’s perceptions toward the integration of ICT in the learning process. Charis School was selected as the research setting since it met the criteria regarding the integration of ICT in EFL classroom: the ICT accessibility, teacher’s ICT competence and institutional supports. The instruments were interview guide and observation sheet. The results of this study showed that the teacher was aware of the integration of ICT in EFL classroom and she integrated it in the instruction and activities in the learning process.

Abstract

In Indonesia, there exist many native languages which therefore position English as a foreign language following Bahasa Indonesia as the L2. This leads to the development of simultaneous bilinguals. However, there have been some contradictory opinions on whether learning English at an early age is effective as it can inhibit a child’s L1 and L2 development. This may lead to the phenomenon of subtractive bilingualism resulting in a major dilemma for the government and parents. However, this notion can be debated through the critical period hypothesis. This paper presents a literature review on the age factor of learning English and its implication in Indonesia.
