The findings showed that the majority of the different teachers highlighted the importance of active learning-based technology in teaching English as a foreign language to learn and process new things to make students more likely to engage in the target language. Therefore, the relationship between the traditional teaching and the technology-enhanced course was significant: p < 0.09), t.test is 6.859, df is 86 with a mean of 3.06 and sd .474 for technology teaching and a mean of 2.22 and SD 6.66 for traditional teaching at preparatory schools in Iraq. The study recommends that English teachers should use active learning-based technology services to foster the learning process and widen their students' knowledge by adopting the technologyenhanced courses in the class by the technological requirements to learn a new language.
