(b) What is EFL teachers’ level of ICT Continuous Professional Development received in the past 18 months? (c) To what extent do EFL teachers perceive their ICT competence? (d) To what extent do EFL teachers intend to use ICT in their English language teaching? (e) How often do EFL teachers incorporate ICT in their classroom? (f) What are the correlations between attitude, competence, intention, and adoption of ICT in English language teaching? Participants included local and expat EFL teachers from four private schools in Phnom Penh. Data collection methods included an online survey questionnaire via Google Form. Data analysis methods included descriptive data and correlational bivariate.
