  2. Internet-based project work Why: • It encourages cooperative learning and stimulates interaction. • It encourages critical thinking skills. • It is a structured way for teachers to begin to incorporate the Internet into the language classroom. • It gives learners quick access to a wealth of information.

  3. Internet-based project work How: • Choose the topic • Find the resources • Make the task clear • Decide on the outcome

  4. Glossary of Internet • Bookmark: This is a way for you to mark a site on the Internet that you may want to visit again, just like putting a bookmark where you left off in a story you are reading. • Boot: This is a term that means to “start up,” or “boot up,” yourcomputer, or basically, to “boot it into gear!”

  5. Buddy List: This is a list that you have the option of keeping on your Internet Service Provider. It can contain screen names of your friends and family that you like to “talk” with through instant messaging or e-mailing. • Byte: It usually takes 8 or 10 bits to make a byte, so a byte is bigger than a bit!

  6. Internet based simulation • Bring real-life contexts to the classroom. • Internet gives access to authentic websites that enable them to carry out these simulation.

  7. Webquest • Webquestsare task-oriented activities in which the learner draws on material from different websites in order to achieve a specific goal, e.g. • researching a topic and answering a series of questions posed by the teacher • creating a presentation • writing an essay, etc. • The skills that are required in a webquestmainly involve reading and listening, but there may also be communicative speaking exercises.

  12. Thesaurus • In a thesaurus, you will find synonyms for words. • First, you look up the word in the thesaurus. Next to the word you will find a list of words that mean the same things as the word you looked up. • Like wonderful –great, magnificent, excellent, terrific, cool, and fantastic • Also in a thesaurus you will find an antonym for the word. Like horrible or awful would be an antonym for wonderful.

  13. Dictionary • We use a dictionary to look up words. • You will find the meaning of words in a dictionary. • For example, when you do not know the meaning of a word in a story. You may use a dictionary to look up the meaning of the word.

  14. The benefits of email and chat room • they allow learners to interact in an authentic context with native speakers without being restricted by location. • Chat rooms can promote learner autonomy. • students have the opportunity to observe the language used by native speakers. • they allow communication to take place in real time.

  15. A sample text chat lesson plan • Before the class 1. Make contact with the teacher of a similar class in term of level, class size and access to technology 2. Learners also need to be confident about how to use the chat program. 3. With the teacher of other class, set a time for the chat. 4. Try out with other teacher before class

  16. Class room management issues 1. Ideally learners are put in pairs for the first chat. 2. Learners can either conduct the cat in pairs, or consecutive learners can be allowed access to the same computer for a certain amount of time 3. Using voice chat rather than text chat in the single computer classroom

  17. During the cat 1. Provide hand out worksheet 2. Each learner has a slightly different worksheet 3. Asking questions on their worksheet 4. Print out their chat script and complete the worksheet from that, once the cat is finished.

  18. After chat 1. Display their profile in the classroom separately 2 Create learner profile in an inter-class blog
