As students had become protagonist of their own learning process, the teaching concept has changed right after, and so has the use of the educational technology. The "Electronic Page Turner" CAI model has been replaced by the idea of making students in building their own learning process. A new mean of communication has to face what is supposed to be completely or partially replaced: the ”m-learning is here linked to the “e-learning”, and both are necessary for the languages learning.
