Why have I created this
site?
The introduction of the
Internet into the EFL classroom has brought about many changes in the way
instructors approach foreign language teaching. There are several possible
reasons for using the Internet in language teaching. One rationale is found
in the belief that the linguistic nature of online communication is
desirable for promoting language learning. Another possible reason for using the
Internet is that it creates optimal conditions for learning to write, for
example it provides an authentic audience for written communication.
A third possible reason is that it can increase students' motivation.
Finally, there is the belief that learning computer skills is essential to students'
future success; this reason suggests that it is not only important to use
the Internet to learn English, but also to learn English to be able to
function well on the Internet. |

Who is this site for?
This site is primarily intended for students attending my
classes where they can have direct access to information regarding the
subjects taught from a broad range of sources on the net. This information
includes course objectives, course outlines, course content, suggested
reading, procedure of assessment, and useful links to relevant subjects.
Having said that, I would highly recommend this site to every student
attending my classes. Other visitors will, needless to say, also be warmly
welcome. May you find this site both useful and informative.
