My thoughts on using technology in class

Hi, Nikki
The following are my thoughts on using technology in class:
I think it has several benefits;
One of the advantages of using computer-mediated communication is that they provide opportunities for authentic input and access to language learners that are not usually available in the traditional faceto face classroom-based learning environment.
Integrating technology into language teaching can also help all students achieve better computer literacy.They will be more skillful in using computer.
what's more, the use of new technologies can make teaching task more efficient. teachers can supplement more materials , make the learning environment students-centered.
last but not least, students-centered learning environment provides equal opportunities for all students participation in classroom activites, increase the amount of student talk, which intuen increases their oral skills.
In sum, the computer-aided teaching benefits both teaching and learning.

  1. Great post! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I like your focus on creating a student-centered classroom. Isn't it rewarding when students are actively engaged in using and thinking about the target language?!
