This article aimed at investigating two students´perceptions of an English-language teaching undergraduate program about learning and pedagogical practices of students in basic education with the use of technologies in a subject which is part of the curriculum. This investigation is grounded in theories that discuss the use of Information and Communication Digital Technologies in teaching-learning (BUCKINGHAN, 2010; ALMEIDA;VALENTE, 2011, 2016; BRAGA, 2013; among others). As for the methods, the research is considered a qualitative case study (STAKE, 1995; YIN, 2015). The results show that a specific academic subject on technologies plays a relevant role in English-language teaching undergraduate programs, since not only does it provide learning diversity with different digital technological interfaces. However, it also allows the teacher-to-be to reflect upon the potential and appropriation of these technologies for teaching purposes.
