Digital Literacy: ICT Integration in Grade 10 English First Additional Language Teaching

By Princess Nonhlanhla Shandu-Omukunyi

The use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is viewed as an innovative tool in enhancing a learner-centered approach to learning and teaching. As a result, a number of schools in rural and urban environments in South Africa have been provided with computers and other digital resources to facilitate learning and teaching. This study investigated the use of ICT in the learning and teaching of English First Additional Language (EFAL), also known as English Second Language (ESL) at Grade 10 level. It set out to discover digital resources and literacies to which teachers and learners were exposed in the EFAL/ESL classroom, and how these resources were used to enhance learners' reading and writing skills. Following a qualitative research design, this study made use of classroom observations and interviews to collect data from teachers and Grade 10 learners. The collected evidence was from a single school which uses the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) Khanya Project ICT materials. The school is located in one of the disadvantaged black townships in Cape Town.
