Abstract
In general, the concept of authenticity refers to something real, true and genuine. How to apply this concept to the ESL classroom has been a long-term concern related to language teaching and learning. Technology has significantly transformed the way people obtain, receive and process information particularly from the Internet. Technology is also being increasingly used in language teaching and learning. This paper expounds the concept of using authenticity and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to create a new teaching method and learning experience for students.
