They were well-informed about various ICT tools and techniques for English teaching. The difference was that novice English teachers showed high confidence and innovatively used ICT, whereas experienced English teachers were uncertain and cautious, sometimes relying on students’ assistance and considering some aspects such as students’ backgrounds and familiarity with ICT. Both English novice and experienced teachers used ICT, including learning websites, search engines, educational games, and multimedia presentations for class discussions, student assessments, brainstorming, and group projects to make the class interactive.
