Sažetak
The Internet has steadily been gaining importance as a vital medium of communication in acquiring knowledge. As such, it has occurred as the major initiating factor in changes in increasingly ICT-supported instruction. If such Internet-based learning is to be optimized, proficiency in foreign languages – primarily English – is required, for academic and professional purposes equally. Conversely, the prevalence of the Internet facilitates foreign language acquisition, often by integrating language skills. In the research factors of quality of interpersonal communication in both face-to-face communication and CMC were analyzed in terms of university students' perception of relevance of acquiring language skills in learning English as a foreign language.
