  • Abstract:
  • In today’s interconnected society, multilingualism is increasingly valued, and acquiring linguistic competence is essential in contemporary education. Traditional methods of language learning, reliant on rote memorization and in-person instruction, often lack engagement and flexibility. The rise of digital technologies has transformed educational paradigms, making language acquisition more accessible, interactive, and personalized. India’s National Education Policy 2020 underscores the importance of digital tools in modern education. These resources include a variety of interesting methods for learning languages, including social media, virtual reality, interactive games, online courses, and language learning apps. Gamification is a strategy used by language learning programs such as Rosetta Stone and Duolingo to improve user engagement and retention online resources like Coursera and Khan Academy offer adjustable pacing in well-structured courses. Learning becomes enjoyable and competitive with interactive games as well as quizzes, such as those found on Quizlet and Kahoot!. Social media makes it easier to communicate in real-time with native speakers, while virtual reality offers immersive settings for realistic language practice. Notwithstanding the benefits, issues like the digital gap, less in-person engagement, and the deluge of available materials need to be addressed. Investing in infrastructures to close the digital divide, combining digital and conventional tools to preserve human interaction, and providing educators with ongoing professional development to help them keep up with technological changes are some solutions. Teachers may design inclusive, dynamic, and personalised learning experiences that equip students for a globalised society by skilfully leveraging digital tools. In an increasingly digital world, digital tools have the potential to greatly improve language training. Their meticulous incorporation can help overcoming the inherent hurdles and guarantee that students obtain the finest education possible.
