• Reflection on CALL Presentation Week 1 (Group 1 and Group 2)


    There are countless ideas, opinions, and lessons which we got during Group 1 and Group 2 presentations. Technology development is super quick,. In fact, in a year there are so many developments happened in the technology industry in particular. As our group is mostly born in 1993, we somehow have different perception towards technology. During our time of language learning using computer, the farthest we have learned through CD Player from Textbook at our Computer Lab.

    We have no idea that technology has been developing aggressively which left us behind. Group 1 and Group 2 have opened our eyes towards the beauty of technology and how computer could assist us in terms of learning and teaching process.

    Group 1

    Group 1 brought up an online website which is called 'Writewell'. It is a website which will assist students and teachers in learning English writing. The online website provides basic guidelines on writing, and it gives a bunch of exercises which later could be accessed by the teacher to be checked. There are so many topics which are suited for all levels (Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary) level of education. We are very interested to try out one or two exercises from the website. Not only that, the website will give feedbacks to our writing, and it corrects some mistakes which have been committed for future reference.



    Also, Group 1 was enthusiastically told the class on how the functions of the website. The website' s features are very edgy and have a modern look which is suited to today's style of the website interface. Here we would like to show the web interface of Writewell.



    Group 2
    Group 2, however, a little bit different than Group 1. While Group 1 was teaching us the importance of technology in assisting Writing skills learning process, Group 2 taught us the importance of technology in assisting the Listening skills learning process. They taught us on Flashcard Software. Flashcard Software provides the service to enhance our Listening Skills. The best flashcard software to learn Listening Skills is iKnow! It is indeed an interesting software.

    There was so much fun learning English via Computer. Bunch of English software and free online websites which could easily be accessed anywhere, anytime, with anyone. We have learned that it is important to at least try to cope with the development of technology. We could even use these online websites and software for future reference or to teach our future generation.
