Non-native speaker usage of English is changing. Under the historic impact of Information and Communications Technology and its critical Convergence, EFL/ESL usage will in future predominantly be online. It will be used to access, navigate and contribute to English language digital resources, and for computer-mediated communication with others who are in the main non-native speakers of English. These uses are computer-mediated, which has profound implications for Korean learners of English. For Korea to remain competitive in the global economy, its EFL should foster L2 Digital Literacy in English.
With fast Internet connections, Korea is perhaps the most wired nation on Earth. To take advantage of this, ICT facilities in educational institutions need restructuring. Computermediated second language learning needs to be facilitated, particularly for native teacher English classes. Multimedia capable, mobile web solutions are needed that place the Internet in the hands of all students and teachers. Wi-Fi networked campuses allow any campus space to act as a wireless classroom. Teacher computer consoles with high-speed Internet access and OHP are required for every classroom. All students require adequate computing facilities, that are available anywhere, anytime. This has become feasible through providing every student on enrollment with a Wi-Fi+3G enabled Apple iPad, on which educational providers install, maintain and update E-texts and content creation and consumption Apps.
