Description
The adoption and application of the Internet as one of the most reliable and effective tools for teaching and learning of English language in Nigerian schools and in particular, in tertiary institutions has brought creative and far-reaching changes to language education programmes. The Internet, since its evolution has transformed the process in which ideas, knowledge and information are recorded, transferred and communicated in education. This paper therefore addresses the concepts of Internet, its relevance to teaching and learning of English language and advocates for its usage in language teaching.
