Nowadays, the role and function of information and communication technology has many roles in the world of education, especially in the learning process. One of them is learning English. In this digital era, education must integrate information and communication technology into all subjects. With the development of digital era education, it is possible for students to gain abundant knowledge quickly and easily.

In the educational context, understanding the characteristics of each generation is important to determine how effective educational strategies are provided to students. The goal is not just students' academic and pedagogical achievements, but also how the educational process can grow students' character and love for learning activities. Currently, most of Generation Zero are of school age. This means that adapting the learning system in our educational spaces must take into account the characteristics of Generation Zero to suit their needs without ignoring their interests and habituation as a generational group.

In an increasingly advanced digital era, technology has played an increasingly important role in education, especially in English language learning. The use of technology in the teaching and learning process has opened the door to more interactive, effective and fun learning methods. This has changed the landscape of English education and is key to improving students' language skills in the future. One of the main advantages of technology in English language learning is its ability to create deep and engaging learning experiences. Through online platforms, students can access a variety of resources, such as interactive training programs, multimedia learning materials, and advanced technology-based applications designed specifically for English language learning. In this way, students can learn in a way that is more interesting, involved, and suits their respective learning styles. In addition, technology also allows for better collaboration and communication between students.

Through online communication tools, students can interact with their classmates, discuss English topics, share opinions, and even participate in collaborative projects. This not only improves students' speaking and listening skills in English, but also builds confidence and collaboration skills that are important in the real world. Technology also expands the accessibility of English language learning. With the online learning platform, students from various geographical and economic backgrounds can access English learning materials flexibly and affordably. This helps overcome physical and financial barriers to obtaining a quality education, thereby expanding opportunities for everyone to develop English language skills. In addition, technology also allows for more accurate tracking and assessment of student progress in learning English. By using adaptive learning software and data analysis tools, teachers can monitor individual student progress, identify areas of weakness, and provide more personalized feedback. This allows learning to be tailored to each student's needs, thereby increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of the learning process.

The development of globalization has facilitated the opportunity for individuals worldwide to relocate to various nations, whether it be for residential, occupational, or educational purposes. Fluency in the language spoken in the country is crucial when it comes to migrating and entering a foreign nation. Evidence of linguistic competence may be necessary to demonstrate an individual's ability to communicate in the language spoken in the country they are visiting. IELTS is widely acknowledged as evidence of English language competency in numerous English-speaking nations.

Currently, there is an observable surge in the quantity of Indonesian students pursuing education overseas. In Australia, specifically, there were a total of 8748 Indonesian students, according to the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia in 2016. The tendency emerged as a consequence of the financial sponsorships offered in Indonesia to equip the younger generation with the means to pursue higher education in prestigious colleges worldwide.

However, in certain instances, the mandate for a standardized language competency examination can provide difficulties for Indonesian prospective candidates. Essentially, individuals have the chance to pursue education in a foreign country due to the abundance of scholarships offered by both the government and the host nation. However, fulfilling the language competence criteria, specifically the IELTS exam, can pose a challenge. There are likely other factors contributing to the difficulties Indonesian students have with the IELTS exam. Initially, individuals are inadequately equipped to handle a rigorous assessment framework like IELTS while pursuing their English education at school or university.

The value of IELTS test for students:

As a potential international student, it is crucial for you to showcase your ability in the English language as a requirement for the university admission procedure. It is important to note that various English language assessments may be required for admission. Given the multitude of choices, one may question the distinguishing factors and the reasons behind the widespread popularity of IELTS. We are here to address these inquiries and provide comprehensive explanations regarding the advantages of taking an IELTS examination.

The global recognition that IELTS receives is one of the primary factors contributing to its status as the most widely accepted English language test worldwide. The test is recognized and approved by more than 10,000 organizations across around 140 nations. Over three million individuals, including international students and others seeking to relocate to another country, take this annually.

The IELTS test possesses a distinct edge over other English language tests, such as TOEFL, due to a significant rationale. Immigration agencies universally recognize IELTS as proof of proficiency in the English language. It is imperative to consider this aspect while submitting a visa application, as well as when applying to a university. Significantly, it is the preferred examination for nations such as the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States, Australia, and New Zealand.

This test can be administered on paper, computer, or internet. TOEFL is a widely used international test. Accepted and recognised by over 10,000 institutions and educational agents in 130 countries (www.ets.org).

Indonesia, with the world's fourth-largest population, is a possible market for this test. Students seeking to study abroad strive to acquire the necessary scores for acceptance at their desired colleges or universities. To get the desired TOEFL score, private and state-owned institutions adapt their preparatory courses accordingly. Most Indonesian education institutions set admittance standards for postgraduate programmes at 500 or above, without taking into account students' communication skills. This suggests that the TOEFL preparation course has not yet prioritised students' English communication skills.

INTRODUCTION

Nowadays, the use of Information and Computer Technology (ICT) is not a new thing anymore to people. People are already getting accustomed to use ICT in their daily life through their gadget and activities. The use of ICT could not be separated from people’s activities especially for students. Almost all students have their own gadgets. They use it for getting new information and knowing what happened outside their environment. They can access the information throughout the internet wherever they are, as long as their gadgets are connected to the internet signal.

Considering those facts above, the writer can say that there are some things appear in students’ daily life related to the use of ICT. The application of ICT in students’ daily activity can show their motivation and their attitude in sing it. Thus, this paper assignment will further talk and explain about the issues appear to students. Additionally, this paper assignment will also proposed some conclusion remarks based on the facts appeared in the field.

As we know that students differ in their motivation towards learning English and they display many different attitudes towards learning a language. A student that has negative attitudes towards learning English could be changed and turn those negative attitudes into positive ones and get a positive result. This will be further discussed below.

The fact that we can find at school is that the teacher sometimes cannot create a good media to overcome the situation above. As we know that computer-assisted language learning (CALL) allows the combination of different online resources through multiple hyperlinks, a feature common to most online searches and many offline utility. With the expansion of CALL, more questions have been raised. Issues of learning style, motivation, attitude, personality and some other factors have come to the fore with the use of computers. Students who see CALL as an important part of the course also have a high level of motivation and attitude in learning English.

In the learning process, students will show different attitudes and it will be different between one and each other. Computer-assisted language learning (CALL) can affect the students’ attitude in learning process. All the students agree that they are proficient in computers and they are integrated with them. This can be seen through the use of students’ gadget in their daily life. This statement is supported by the study conducted by Önsoy (2004) who also confirmed that there were differences between the learning process that using computer-assisted language learning (CALL) and the one that do not. In his thesis, he stated that students and teachers demonstrated positive attitudes towards the use of computers in daily tasks and in language instruction. However, the findings showed that there were statistically significant differences among the perceptions of students in terms of their levels. The findings also indicated that students and teachers believed that training was required and they believed that they needed training to learn and teach with computers.

Foreign Language Teaching using ICT

Image by: https://pedagoo.com/uses-of-ict-in-education/?lang=en

Introduction

There has been much debate over the use of computers and the Internet in Foreign Language Teaching over the past few years. The techniques offered, the activities and the degree of application in the language teaching syllabus have undergone a number of serious changes alongside the evolution of technology. The computer itself has evolved from the status of “tutor” to the one of “tool”.

The computer as a tool stage refers to the usage of computers as vehicles for delivering instructional materials to learners (through drill and practice). The development of computer based activities developed learner computer and learner interaction, engaging the learners in a wide range of communicative tasks. This was the moment computers assumed the role of stimuli in language learning. “The computer as a tool stage” refers to using computers as instruments for understanding and using language through spelling and grammar checkers, desktop editing programs. All these steps belong to CALL (Computer assisted language learning).

The methodology of language learning has developed a new way of using ICT in teaching, the Hypermedia. Hypermedia provides the language teacher and the language learner with multimedia resources, such as texts, graphics, sound, animation, video linked together. It also has a number of advantages omitted by CALL. It offers an authentic learning environment, it combines listening with seeing. Skills can easily be integrated in the teaching/learning process; reading, writing, speaking, listening can be combined in task- based learning.

ICT in Foreign Language Teaching 

The application of ICT gives more opportunities for communication between peer learners: they can exchange information in real time, they can participate in blog discussions, work in teams on different projects, exchange emails, search for information, etc. By using the authentic material provided by the Internet, we will have a better insight into the culture of the country and people whose language we study.

The Internet also offers a wide variety of reference materials like online dictionaries, encyclopedias and search mechanisms very helpful for developing students` individual work. They can find, alone, the missing information, the meaning of new words, synonyms, antonyms or can communicate with the rest of the group online, via e-mail or in any other ICT environment.

In a language classroom the computer may have the following roles:

•  Teacher – it teaches students new language;

•  Tester - it tests students on the already learned structures;

•  Tool – it assists students to do certain tasks;

•  Data source – it provides students with the information they need to solve different tasks;

•  Communication facilitator – it allows students to communicate with 

   others.

1) Computer as a Teacher

In the early years of CALL in schools some reluctant teachers made assumptions that in a few years teachers would no longer be needed in schools, their role being taken over by computers. It is not the case, as we can very well see. Computerized teaching (computer as a teacher) uses multimedia CD ROMS. In such programs, students can listen to recordings, watch videos, speak into the microphone, record their progress or learn words by clicking on pictures and hearing their pronunciation. An alternative to CD ROMS is the World Wide Web. Students can practice all their skills there and it is more useful for the teacher than the CD ROM because teachers can intervene with their own ideas or materials.

2) Computer as a Tester

Students can practice their knowledge of a specific language using different Internet websites. A problem these sites have is the fact that the practice programs are very limited in terms of practice materials. Basically, the practice material refers to multiple choice exercises, dual choice exercises, true or false. The only answer the computer can give is Right or Wrong.

Despite these limitations computer grammar or vocabulary practice is enjoyed by students because the latter feel like playing and get the feedback without fearing the teacher’s criticism. They can also work in groups, sitting at the same computer and discussing the answers.
