is our objective to enlarge our vision and cultural dialogue.
• In Karsiyaka, we use new audio-visual aids for informative
education and new technologies in our ICT classrooms at schools. ICT
is an effective tool to teach modern languages. At our schools, we
use ICT to raise standards of education and to enhance motivation. We
want to share our experiences on ICT in language teaching in this
study visit.

role of ICT in Turkish Education System. It will focus on the use of
