Technologies in English as a Second/Foreign Language Writing Classes

This paper presents a systematic review on the use of technologies in English as a Second Language (ESL) and as a Foreign Language (EFL) writing classes. The pursued objectives were to: 1) review recent empirical studies for the use of technologies in ESL/EFL writing classes; and 2) synthesize and assess the impacts of digital technologies on written texts and the writing process. Hence, the findings of this review are relevant because the arrival of new technologies has changed the environment in which digital writing is practiced and there is a lack of rigorous literature reviews that allow a better comprehension of these impacts (Lira-Gonzales & Grégoire, 2022).
