I found the webpage for a Spanish newspaper a while back when doing research for my Spanish civilization class. I don't think teachers at the high school level should assign homework off the internet because there are so many students who don't have access to a computer at home. If schools are equipped, we should allow students to search for topics related to the language during classtime. Time should be set aside i.e. once a week or something for students to use the internet. These are just some ideas that I have about the use of the internet in schools.
Technology is a very powerful tool to use in the classroom.
Because of the world wide web, previous boundaries regarding possibilities of education have been eliminated. The only problem I forsee is using the technology efficiently to gain maximum educational results. Using the Web will assist greatly with research of target language information, provide the students with more real-life materials of the culture of the second language and additionally be a resource for teachers to use to gain materials for teaching as well as use practically in the classroom. One of the greatest advantages I see with the internet is the ability to establish pen pals and have more regular and meaningful conversations. With email, relations with schools in other countries can easily be established so that students can use the target language first hand.
