Using websites in the classroom

To select useful websites is a very important tool for the English learning process.
The teacher needs to choose a topic that will be interesting for the students and it also can be a current topic.
In addition, this resource is very useful for exploring deeper school curricula contents like the environment, community, and my country. The specific topic can be related to the students´social context and encourage them to give solutions and suggestions for the topic or problem proposed. This tool can be used for accomplishing an extra homework or project.
To warantee success, the students should show motivation, have a clear objective to accomplish, use appropiately websites that provide prescise data for their activities, and show creativity. Besides, the teacher can show creativity designing the task for the pupils, take time to choose the weblinks and encourage students to critize the information they found.
The evaluation can be done through checking a written report, have an oral activity such as a speech or organize a group disscusion related to the information collected. By using these techniques, the learning process can go smoothly and the lesson is going to be more dynamic.
