My seventh reflection

Today is the eighth day of this course, we continue will our ongoing tasks and assignment. But in this reflection I want to write a little on my thoughts about the advantages of using computer on the ESL settings.I think that It is useful to use computer and technology on the ESL classroom because it brings the student and teachers many benefits for some reason following:Computer can improve the student's achievement in learning. Using computer is not facilitate teachers in preparing their lesson more attractive and interesting but also can offer more resources and experience that student can not find from the books or library.
More over, using the computer in a guided yet independent way helped many students. The quicker students tended to delve more deeply in research on their subject than on a traditional written assignment. Students, especially those who traditionally had difficulty completing assignments, did work online and the partial results - having emails of material they could put together for a paper and presentation, spurred them onto completion.
However, in order to using technology and computer more effectively in ESL setting, the teachers need to be trained correctly on how to use and apply it on their teaching job.In the fact that, In Vietnam the teachers do not train much a bout this skills when they study at University and they sometime do not not know how to use it in their job.
I hope that our computer skills will be more and more improve after finish this course.
