The vast amount of information that makes the Web such an invaluable instructional tool is precisely what limits its usefulness in the classroom WebLessons removes the barriers.

WebLessons is an easy-to-use learning management system that transforms the chaos of the Internet into a safe, structures learning environment for you ans your students. Instead of a normal browser Window, WebLessons gives students an organized, step-by-step learning path complete with instructions, study questions, vocabulary, quizzes, and inquiry-based projects.

Entry # 1 The use of Information Communication Technology in the teaching of English in an ESL/EFL classroom



There has been much debate over the use of computer assisted language learning(technology) in the ESL/EFL classroom over the past decade. As you are reading this feature via the Internet(and I am writing this using a computer), I will assume that you feel that technology is useful to your teaching and/or learning experience.
There are many uses of the computer in the classroom. In today's feature I would like to provide some examples of how I like to use technology in my teaching. I find that technology can be successfully employed not only for grammar practice and correction, but also for communicative activities. As most of you are familiar with the programs that offer with grammar, I would like to focus on the use of technology for communicative activities.
Best Regards.
