Abstract
This article explores the integration of digital pedagogy in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. Grounded in constructivist and connectivist theories, it analyzes both the opportunities—such as increased engagement and access to authentic materials—and the challenges—such as technological barriers and digital literacy gaps—associated with technology use in language teaching. Findings suggest that while digital pedagogy can significantly enhance learning outcomes, its effectiveness depends on strategic implementation, teacher training, and institutional support.References
