Online English videos

Hi everyone these are few videos that people can watch if they are interested in learning English.Some teachers upload real live videos on a particular topic such as learning the time,people,pets,weather and other real life situations.I think using videos is another modern approach that teachers can use to teach English online=)STudents will find it interesting.

My reflection(week 10)

Hello everyone,

Im back again and i cant believe its already week 10.time flies.Well i had a busy week due to assignmnents but i manage to do more research on English online teaching.I came across this article by 2 japanese authors(Kenji kitao and katheleen kitao)that talks about the use of English Teaching over the internet.This article is sutaible for English teachers on how to teach over the net.It provides information on how English teachers can find teaching materials and teaching plans which will be a good start for them to teach English online.There is also one part that gives a description on learning English online for students.There are many links to other webpages that teachers and students can click on and find more info on how to get started learning or teaching online.I will post this article on my blogger(link area) if any of you are interested in reading the whole article.

There is also website that i came across which is Englishintaiwan.com and it shows the structure plan that are used for teaching English online.This website shows an outline of lesson plans that are taught in English.For example, there are questionairres,grammar exercises,role play and discussions,and other materials.I think this is an effective way to attract students to learn English online.Teachers who are interested in teaching English on the web are able to have an idea on how create a webpage to just teach English online using all the interesting features. This website is obviously trying to attract taiwanese students to learn ENglish on this page.So by using all the features, its more enjoyable for students to learn English in a different way and they can learn English during their spare time instead of fixed hours..This will also benefit the teacher as well as its flexible and easy for them to teach in a more fun and interesting way.


well this is all i have for now...hope i can find more information and ideas in the next two weeks...will keep u all updated=)

cheers
