Becoming a Successful Pre-Service English as a Foreign Language Lecturer in the Digital Divide

Abstract

The ephemeral nature of life is such that what was present in our lives yesterday may undergo a transformation or cease to exist altogether, as if it had never been. Technology has emerged as a significant factor in mitigating the challenges posed by various crises, particularly during recent global pandemics, natural calamities, and mass migrations. Undoubtedly, the incorporation of technology in the realm of education is a significant phenomenon. Currently, attention is directed towards academic institutions that offer programs for teacher education. Numerous responsibilities are assigned to the faculty members who provide instruction to individuals pursuing a career in teaching. The education of pre-service teachers regarding technology necessitates a distinct emphasis and instruction. The primary subject matter of this chapter pertains to the instruction of technology integration for pre-service English teachers, with a particular emphasis on the digital divide.
