Didactic Opportunities for Developing Digital Literacy in Teaching English

Digital literacy has become a key learning outcome of higher education, and English language teaching (ELT) offers particularly rich conditions for its development because the English-language internet is simultaneously a source of input, a space for interaction and a medium for creative production. The purpose of this article is to identify and systematise the didactic opportunities of ELT for developing students' digital literacy and to test their effectiveness in practice. The theoretical basis combines the four-foci model of digital literacies proposed by Dudeney, Hockly and Pegrum, the DigComp 2.2 framework, the TPACK model and the SAMR model of technology integration.
