Entry # 2. Write an opinion about three sites related to ESL/EFL.

The first site, www.ict4lt.org was designed by Graham Davies Sedgwick at Electric Easel. It is a collection
of training modules in Information and Communications Technology (ICT) for Language Teachers. It was
initiated with funding provided in 1999-2000 by the European Commission and has been regularly
updated ever since.

This site provides a very helpful information for teachers and students; using a variety of technological
resources which are very useful for teaching English at different level modules. These levels are
organized from basic to advanced, and every level requires the use of technology for being taught. Of
course, the technology is not the solution at all; teachers must be prepared in order to teach what this
site is offering for an effective teaching and learning process. Moreover, this site is free of charge to all
visitors and will remain so for the foreseeable future. Actually, it is visited by 41,049 visitors from 182
countries around the world. Also, teachers and students can go to ICT4LT Blog in which they can share
important information related to teaching and learning languages.

The second website refers to technology-integration-and-adult learning. This page contains a variety of
colorful pictures and information that you can share with friends and people around the world. You can
upload important information, videos, pictures, and publish them to be reading for all visitors of this
site. Also, we can search important information we need just typing in the blank space in this site.
Besides that, this information and pictures are very helpful for the teaching and learning process
because these ones make students to have a real contact with the English environment. I strongly
believe that, in this site, technology plays a very important role because it facilitates a great variety of
tools for teachers and students who need to learn English for different reasons.

The third one is related to wedsitehome.co.uk, a PowerPoint presentation which offers a discussion of
the different levels (English levels). Well, I consider that, this presentation looks quite simple; with not
colorful sample at all, but a very well organized topics, teacher links, writing, grammar quizzes, games
and very short reading lessons. Besides that, this presentation has a very really interesting content to
facilitate the students learning process. As it says English Language Space Station for English learner and
teachers across the galaxy. Basically, this site is focused on PowerPoint presentations which are really
enjoyable for the teaching and learning process.

Finally, I believe that, the previous sites are really interesting and effective for the teaching and learning
process, but there is not miracle in technology waiting for us. Both teachers and students need to use
technology appropriately for having good outcomes in the teaching and learning process.

Thanks you…
