This document discusses how new trends in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teaching have transformed the author's teaching. It covers topics like blended learning, flipped learning, digital citizenship, global literacy, rubrics for assessment, content curation, and open educational resources. For each topic, it provides brief explanations and suggestions for implementation in the classroom, as well as additional resources for teachers to learn more. The overall message is that incorporating new technologies and approaches can make learning more student-centered, self-directed, collaborative, visible, and connected to the global community.
