In the last few years there have been many changes both in academic expectations and in the way that students are using multimedia in their lives outside of school. Students are now accessing games consoles, mobile phones uploads, downloads, apps and as a teacher it is important to both understand and be able to harness these new technologies to enhance and improve their learning of languages.
