Week 4: Internet to improve ELT in the world

I liked a lot of this article named "CALL Me … Maybe:  A Framework for Integrating  the Internet into ELT". When I started to read what is about I realized that is an interesting and important topic principally for teachers and future teachers. The integration of internet into ELT and all the new frameworks activities that we can find on the internet; this is the principle that I would like to remember from this article because now thanks to CALL we can have a better and faster learning English process, as well as, it has become in an important support for teachers to develop more competitive classes.

 I have always believed that the internet is an important tool for teachers to find activities ideas and frameworks as well as to have a better communication teachers-students through websites like Skype and ALICE. Every teacher should know the importance of internet in the learning process and how useful can be for teachers the variety of activities that can find on internet, and the different websites such as VOA, WebCorpLive, etc, to facilitate the learning process for students. Also, I would like to share this importance of internet with a colleague too because internet it is a part of our life now, so I think it is important to take advantage of this and start to use it in the teaching area.

A question that I still have is what can we do to more students can get internet access? Because internet as a tool for learning English is amazing; nonetheless, I have seen a big inconvenience in this, and it is that not all people have an internet connection and the most of them always are people with a bad economy. This can be a big inconvenience for teachers and students because it would be depriving them of a better education.- Score: 4.
