Implementing a Holistic Teaching in Modern ELT Classes: Using Technology and Integrating Four Skills

Abstract:     
This conceptual paper explores the framework of which language teaching approaches are required to integrate the recent technologies in modern English Language Teaching (ELT) classes. Driven on the relevant literature of ELT and Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL), we argue that integration of language skills in a holistic way and the technology as the enabler can facilitate the learners' obtaining the knowledge of the language and the knowledge about how to use the language appropriately in communicative situations.
