The early familiarization, especially of young learners with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has formed a new way they perceive and process information as well as the way they learn. Online, self-paced, language-learning web environments and mobile apps offer various possibilities for foreign language learners to explore different types of texts and materials and use the authentic target language.
