The chronological order of the improvements is helpful to a frequent user, who can readily identify a new addition to the site by the date listed. The Instructor Check Exercises are extensive, covering 27 different grammar points and vocabulary items in a variety of formats. The language points are presented in a table format that indicates the title of the activity, the language area treated, and a description of the activity, including the number of external links present to aid in completing the activity. Students are asked to understand TL texts and their content, identify and produce corrrect grammatical answers, compose letters and valentines and short stories. Each of the activities has a provision for students to send their work to the particular professor assigning the task for correction.
Students can also receive a copy of their own responses for later verification and correction.
