In recent years there have been huge developments in the use of ICT in education. Perhaps the most significant of these is the Internet and the opportunities it offers for global communication as well as access to information and resources. What significance might this have for learners of community languages in the UK context? In what ways might it enhance motivation and learning, in particular the development of literacy skills? This paper reports on a small-scale ethnographic study carried out with lower secondary students of Urdu and Bengali at a mainstreamschool in East London in the 1998–99 academic year. The study focused on the use of the Internet and multi-lingual word processingwithin a Web publishing project and examinedthe role played by ICT at different stages.Data froma range of sourceswas collectedduring the study and a number of key issues identified which have implications for schools in both mainstream and voluntary community-run sectors.
