training and challenges faced by foreign language teachers during the use of icts

Information and communication technologies (icts) have significantly transformed the education system in recent decades, providing new opportunities for both teachers and students and improving the quality of education. the purpose of this study is to analyze the opinions of foreign language teachers regarding the impact of icts in the classroom, the training acquired and the challenges faced during the teaching-learning experience. a study with a quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional, and descriptive approach was carried out using a questionnaire as a data collection instrument. the final sample consisted of 117 foreign language teachers from bilingual schools of primary and secondary education in andalusia (spain), both public and subsidized/semi-public. specifically, 66.6% are female and 33.4% male. the results indicate that teachers believe in the positive impact that icts may have on the teaching-learning process, and feel highly motivated in carrying out their work through icts. however, teachers continue to express the need for further and continuous training and highlight the importance of technical support and how the lack of resources can undermine the quality of foreign language teaching.
