1. WHAT ARE THE USES OF A VIRTUAL
CLASSROOM IN THE TEACHING AND
LEARNING OF ESL/EFL?"
2. Well as far as I understood technology is a
tool that all teachers most use with their
students to have a clear and extended
learning in the learning proses so with access
of internet a classroom could be enjoyable
interesting and anything you will want and
your students ask for everything is there just
to use so in a virtual class you have lessons
online but in a virtual classroom you not only
can ask a teacher tutorial guide you will find a
menu with any question and steps to find
what you need in your process.
3. There is a wide variety of hardware and software
available for teachers of English as a Second
Language (ESL) and of English as a Foreign
Language (EFL). Even though the contexts
between the two types of teaching/learning are
different, the motivations are the same. Teachers
and students want and need access to
techniques and strategies that effectively teach
English. Depending on the specific context, the
teachers and students may have more or less
access to various types of technology
4. As I stated earlier, context often determines the
type and amount of technology that is available.
For example, ESL teachers who teach adults in
American community colleges also often
incorporate teaching computer skills into their
classes. A teacher in an online program, whether
ESL or EFL, uses a variety of web technologies for
his/her class, which may include Skype, or other
such online tools. A teacher in Peru may not have
classroom access to a, but have access at home so
that she/he can find lesson ideas online to use in
class.
