Abstract
Modern foreign languages and digital literacy are essential in today's education systems to ensure the development of fully prepared citizens. Among the languages learned in schools, English is certainly the most studied in Europe. Consequently, it is not surprising that educational initiatives are being developed to enhance the learning of this language. Such is the case of ‘English for Social Purposes and Cooperation', which aims to foster English language learning through relevant social and cultural topics and the use of educational technology so that learners develop their competences. Although relatively new, the potential of this approach for language learning, raising awareness of social and cultural issues and developing digital skills is undeniable. This chapter explores the potential of ‘English for Social Purposes and Cooperation' for developing teachers' digital literacy, empowering students, and fostering educational technology integration. Moreover, it presents a proposal of technology-based tasks that can help develop learners' digital literacy, equity, and inclusion.
