Engineering English through ICT Integration: A TPACK-Based Approach for Language Learning Enhancement

Page No.: 34-44

Abstract

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has gradually reshaped English language teaching by making classroom practices more interactive and learner-centred in higher education. In engineering education, this shift has created new opportunities to enhance students’ language learning experience and encourage more active classroom engagement. This study is framed within the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework, which helps explain how ICT is integrated into engineering English classrooms and how it supports language learning through the combined influence of technology, pedagogy, and subject knowledge. A quantitative survey design was adopted, and data were collected from 86 engineering students using a structured Likert-scale questionnaire in selected higher educational institutions in India. The responses were analysed using IBM SPSS and Microsoft Excel. The findings suggest that ICT integration improves student engagement, provides better access to learning resources, and supports the gradual development of English language skills among engineering students in higher education.
