**2.9 English language teaching using ICT in the EFL classroom and their evolution**

In the 1980s, some publishers began to include recordings in cassettes or single discs so pupils could practice their listening skills. Later, the tapes evolved into CDs. With the introduction of personal computers in the classroom, teachers started using PowerPoint or Word documents to make learning more enjoyable. Then we saw the introduction of software such as interactive CD-ROMs. Finally, in recent years, the Internet has been a revolution with its introduction into the teaching-learning process through tablets, various tools, and other applications [12].

*It is true that with the development of new technologies, some of these tools are no longer used today—think of cassette or video tapes—but some are still useful and can help us in the teaching-learning process, such as CD-ROMs or Word documents. [12]*
