Summary/Abstract: We are living an era where new generations are developing within a virtual world very different from past generations. Now, we are working with young iGen who are born between 1995 and 2012 (Twenge, 2017: 9). Therefore, teaching methods should be adapted to all that encourages learning to this new generation. Kathy Schrock has proposed a design that coordinates Revise Bloom’s Taxonomy with the integration of technology. According to this model, the educator takes advantage of some technological tools to create a better learning experience within the classroom. Students go from the analysis to the evaluation and then to the creation of their final product. The use of technology and some specific applications in the classroom are more and more necessary tools to complement the teaching of a foreign language.
