CONTEXTUALIZING LANGUAGE TEACHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR 21ST CENTURY SKILLS IN ASEAN MEMBER COUNTRIES
Abstract
We live in a digital age. It is an age that information communication technologies (ICTs) have made our lives so convenient and conducive yet complex and complicated at the same time. While the use of ICTs such as the desktop, laptop, tablet, smart phone and wifi connection has helped us in our daily routine, at work or study, the complexity of life and the anxiety caused by having to ‘catch up’ with the rapid changing technology in information communication cannot be overlooked. Living in the digital age means having to keep on learning, including acquiring and honing technology skills to stay relevant and connected with others and the rest of the world.
