Abstract: The educational process has benefited greatly from the technological progress, which is constantly reshaping the dynamics of the teaching-learning context. The computer, mobile devices and the Internet have become constant aids to instruction in many parts of the world, for a wide range of disciplines and learning objectives. This paper refers to the formal teaching/learning context and focuses on the use of the Internet and ICTs as resources in foreign language classrooms. By resorting to these valuable resources, teachers undertake a secondary role and encourage learners to exert a higher level of independence and collaboration, which actually increases their creativity and autonomy. We will take a closer look at the main components of the teaching/learning environment (the people, the tools and the environment) and will highlight a series of advantages, but also potential drawbacks and/or problems related to the management of these resources in language classes.
