Abstract: As the world undergoes rapid technological advancements, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become an integral part of various domains, including education. While ICT tools have revolutionized teaching and learning by providing diverse platforms and opportunities, fundamental language skills such as writing continue to face challenges in digital integration. Despite the growing adoption of ICT in education, there remains a gap in understanding how these technologies influence writing proficiency. Accordingly, this study examines both teachers’ and learners’ perceptions of ICT’s role in enhancing writing skills. Employing a mixed-methods approach, the research gathers data through student questionnaires and teacher interviews to gain comprehensive insights. The findings reveal a spectrum of attitudes, with both positive recognition of ICT’s potential benefits and concerns regarding its limitations. These results underscore the need for strategic incorporation of ICT in language acquisition, emphasizing the development of adaptive digital literacy skills to optimize teaching and learning outcomes. Keywords: ICT; language acquisition planning; learning experience; writing skills.
