Like you, I can almost never get access to computers. My classes are all scheduled at the same time the computer classes, and I find that if there is a cell phone option, my students are happy to try, but without it, they don't want to spend the time in the computer center for English. <br /><br />Thanks for reading.5330https://www.blogger.com/profile/11752690938113124517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5396360.post-10022332429239057262009-09-06T17:36:49.050+09:002009-09-06T17:36:49.050+09:00This sounds like an interesting alternative to set...This sounds like an interesting alternative to setting up a class blog, wiki, etc. It is nice to hear something from a teacher who actually has technology issues in his classroom -- sometimes I get discouraged when I hear all the great things other ESL teachers are doing with computers in the classroom. I have access to a language lab, but it's not always available, and how worth it is it to go just to write a few lines?<br /><br />I'm far from anti-technology in learning, don't get me wrong! But I work more on encouraging students to use online ESL or authentic English resources OUTSIDE of class, and use them in class as resources and time allow. <br /><br />Anyway, I ran into your blog through a Twitter RT and hope to keep up.Betty Carlsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17155852272383173880noreply@blogger.com
