Abstract

The integration of technology in education has spread worldwide and it is one of the best options to improve academic processes day by day. In order to analyze integration of technology and the motivation of English teachers from public schools in Colombia in the improvement of their English level, a quantitative approach was used, having the participation of 10 elementary school teachers who wanted to improve their competence in the English language, to achieve that, the researchers organized a variety of sessions in which participants had the possibility to take part in different activities integrating technology. Data was collected through surveys, observation and a pre-test and a post-test.  As a result, the oral production level of the participating teachers was improved.
