use of information and communication technologies in the process of teaching English after the COVID-19 pandemic

Abstract

The research was carried out at Eloy Alfaro University, in the Chone extension. The objective was to analyze the use of information and communication technologies in teaching the English language after the Covid-19 pandemic. It was a difficult stage for schools, including universities, because students and teachers were not prepared for the change from face-to-face to virtual classes, so they had to take measures to continue with the planned programs. The English subject also changed; in this sense, it was necessary to adapt to the conditions. The quantitative and qualitative method was used to identify, analyze, and describe information and communication technologies in the English teaching process, in addition to desk research, which is based on searching for the published material in reliable reports and documents. Was obtained as results that the technologies used by teachers and students in the English language teaching process after the Covid-19 pandemic showed that teachers were able to respond positively and incorporate new technologies into the English language teaching process, demonstrating that new methodological schemes have evolved, strengthening and invigorating teaching: in addition to contextualizing the research before and after isolation.
