How would English language teachers use blogs, wikis and delicious with their students?





With the spread and development of English around the world. Teachers of English language have known that using technology in their classroom help their student to be more motivated and affective for learning L2. Nowadays technology has become apart of our life. Teachers use it in education to improve their students’ language skills like writing and reading. It enhances the importance of “interaction” between teachers and students.  Teachers can control their students away from classroom.
I prefer using blogger, wiki, and delicious program in my education technology will be more helpful for my students and me  


Blogger: A blog is a tool to connect both my students and me through the learning and assessment process. First I will teach them how to make an account in Blogger.com and make welcome post and design their blog page. When they become familiar with using this website I have to give them an assignment to read a chosen topic they prefer and write a post to reflect that topic. That improves their reading and writing skills especially when they comment in their friends post



Wiki: A wiki is a website where users can add, remove, and edit pages using a web browser. I can teach my students how to publish there work throws Internet by giving them an activity to do it and share it with their friends in PBwiki. Students can type in their content along with features such as tables; they can adjust font sizes, insert pictures and even attach files to the page



Delicious: Delicious is a social bookmarking web service for storing, sharing, and discovering web bookmarks. As a teacher I can determine specific webpages to my students to bookmarking in their delicious account. I have to teach my students how to save their bookmarking online. That give them a chance to open there prefer webpage from any device.
