description Different studies show that the use of technology has had a tremendous impact on motivation in the language learning process. Nevertheless, any prior study about the primary level of education in Jujuy was found. The National Ministry of Education in Argentina promotes the application of technology and implemented different programs for state schools. However, there are any direct programs for private schools. This research project comes from a pedagogical experience where I implemented the use of technology in a primary school in Jujuy. I used the technological tools that this school counted on in spite of limitations with the equipment. Gianelli School is a primary and private school in San Salvador de Jujuy which differs from other private schools. It is located in a peripheral area of the city, this is the reason why many students from low income families attend this school. The present investigation only focuses on students? learning process. This study has a scope of limits in the use of computers and all the resources computers entail. For this purpose, classroom observations were made and a questionnaire was administered to a group of 6th graders. Findings show that students? motivation increases if technology is used in an EFL classroom. Moreover, the different activities through technology foster the practice of the language skills with important benefits on students? learning. Apart from that, findings show that students? motivation to learn English increases even if they meet limitations with the computer equipment.
