Summary/Abstract: Being in a constant struggle of trying to keep our students’ interest during the English class at a time when they are bombarded with technological distractions from every platform – television programmes, smart devices, computers, laptops etc. – requires a teacher’s resourcefulness and creativity, and investment of his/her time and money in materials and technology in order to keep up with the pace at which students operate on a daily basis, including in class. This paper takes a closer look at the employment of technology during the English class with students in Business Administration from the North University Center of Baia Mare, the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca. It is a case study regarding the extent to which the use of technology aids the teaching-learning process. It also tries to find the right balance between traditional teaching-learning tools and the employment of modern technology in class.
