CALL FOR PAPER
ICT in English Language Teaching (ELT) in a Globalized (Cyber) World: Challenges & Remedies 

 
The contemporary world today has become a family, thanks to the spawning wings of Information & Communication Technology (ICT). We live in an age where things change fast and we also try to accommodate with the same pace.  This once again has become possible because of the nitty-gritty of ICT. But as we go global, we come across many issues which we are unaware of and often land ourselves in the midst of confrontation, chaos and conflict because of our unfamiliarity with various subjects, sensitive at times.
 
Nowadays, changes are quick and inevitable. The need to teach in general and teach to English Language effectively in particular is the challenge before all of us. Now, it has become mandatory for the academicians to rethink and revamp their teaching strategies with the changing times. We endeavor to plan an anthology to cater to the growing needs of all concerned whose experiences and well-researched articles can address and come out with possible solutions to the challenges being posed in a globalized world of today.
