Vol. 4 Issue 20 – Conference: ‘Interfacing Language, Culture and Technology’, BITS Pilani (India), October 8-9

Advent of digital and high-speed communication technologies into our lives has made an inevitable impact on the use and development of language and culture which makes effective teaching of language crucial in post modern times. The development of human capital has to be in sync with the swift move in the world of communication. A sense of balance in the fields of language, culture and communication has to be nurtured to scaffold global growth and advancement in a wide range of other fields related to IT, engineering, architecture and business. Thus, technology’s pervasiveness, a potent influential force in the shaping of local and global cultures calls much needed attention to the context of educational policies and practices related to Language pedagogy.
