When at the moment schools have access to expertise in the advancement of Information technology, the interaction of schools and the internet is also enhanced. The paradigm creates a new practice in the use of language and literacy. Positive attitude of English teachers, experts in English education and information technology, and the government towards the new paradigm should critically be formulized. Therefore, this paper tries to provide some annotation on how the new literacy practice could be facilitated to students.
