ICT Integration in English Teaching: Analysis of Documents and Syllabi
Resumen
This research analyzes the national and international regulations for integrating Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in English Language Teaching (ELT) and the digital tools educators at the Language Center of Universidad Nacional de Educación (UNAE), Ecuador, include in the syllabi for language skill development. This qualitative study uses thematic content analysis to explore ICT integration in ELT. Researchers manually coded selected national and international regulations for ICT in ELT, as well as the UNAE Language Center syllabi. Open and axial coding were used to identify key themes related to ICT's role in language skill development. Findings show that official documents emphasized policy frameworks for inclusive ICT education, ICT's role in quality education, and language inclusion. Syllabi analysis revealed the use of LMS platforms like UNAE EVEA and digital tools like TED Talks, Quizlet, Zoom, and Padlet for language skill development. It is concluded that the UNAE Language Center program shows strong policy support for ICT integration in ELT. Syllabi include various digital tools for language skills development. Further research should examine syllabus implementation and learner experiences.
