Internet for English Teaching
By Mark Warschauer
Abstract: In Internet for English Teaching, Warschauer, Shetzer, and Meloni provide a practical survey of uses of the Internet for ESL/EFL instructors and researchers. They offer discussions useful to instructors for professional development and research. Most of their book, however, is devoted to practical instructional uses, including a great many helpful tips, with a modest helping of pedagogical theory and research.
This survey begins with information essential to anyone using the Internet, starting with how to access the Internet and obtain an e-mail address. This information, as the authors point out, will be useful to instructors who have not used the Internet, the largest number of which may be instructors in parts of the world where the Internet is just beginning to be used for teaching, research, and professional development.
