Comments on Jean' amazing website

Hi Jean,

Congratulations on designing a great website!

I am so impressed by that animated tiger!

I also really like the matching exercise, with the pictures. I think that using pictures helps to activate information in the students mind.

I had a few questions about the the vocabulary exercise, which involved matching the scientific name to the known name of an animal. I wonder how relevant that information will be for your students?

I also thought that the educational websites that you added as links were brillant! I actually created a crocodile movie at one of the websites, what fun! I did wonder whether your yr 10 students would be interested in those games? Maybe they would, because I certainly did!

You did a great job!

Have you finished all of your assignments? I have two still going, but I will hand them in this friday.

Take care Jean,

Esther

comments on Zahran's website

Hi Zahran,

I really liked your website. I was particularly impressed with the way the webpages layout. I found that your website was very easy to negotiate and inviting.

As I was doing the quzzies I found that I could do them without having read all of the websites. I could click on the hint button and I could figure out the answer.

What are your thoughts on this? I can see why the hints are there, but something that I am thinking about ie online quzzies is there validity. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this.

Well done,

Esther
It appears that I have some sort of a bug, all of my buttons and label are in Chinese. I kid you not!!!! So if you could be so kind and copy the link to my website and get connected to my website that way.
Thanks Esther

Assignment 2

Hi all,

Well, I am feeling the pressure of the last term. Slowly my ideas are coming together for all of the different assignments.

In my limited readings for Tech Ass 2 I have come across some names that seem to be experts in the field of CALL. I thought that I would share them with you.

Warschauer, Shetzer & Meloni 2000. Internet for English Teaching.

Egbert & Hanson-Smith 1999. not title look at the topic of Learner Autonomy in CALL.

Egbert & Hanson-Smith 1997. New Ways of Using Computers in Language Teaching.

Egbert & Hanson-Smith 1999. CALL Environment.

I hope that you are all doing well!

Esther
