1. Which sites and resources were of most/ least interest as a language learner? Why?
The most interesting site was 'English central' to me. There are a lot of videos and it also offers a English subtitle and explanation of vocabulary. In addition, I could choose a different type of video depending on my level. It might be helpful to improve my listening skill. On the othet hand, the least interesting site was reading site. I wanted to read a novel, but the structure of site was quite complicated. Because of this, I could not read what I wanted to see.

2. Which sites and resources might be useful as a teacher? why?
'English hilfen' site might be useful to teach English as a teacher. There are a various kinds of quizes about grammar which we can make a error easily in the site. Also, the type of quiz is like a game, so it makes students enjoy doing these quizes without any pressure. I would like to provide this site to students after teaching grammar as a review.

3. Which other sites have been useful to you as a learner or teacher?
When I was in NewZealand, I used to enter 'lyrics training' site. Also, this site was very popular among other students. It provided us a variety of pop songs and we had to fill in some blanks by listening music. Thanks to music, we really enjoyed doing this game and also it helped us improve our listening skill. It is the most useful site to me as a learner.

4. What did you enjoy about spending time in the computer lab vs the classroom.
Of course, I really enjoy spending time in the computer lab. We always have a class in classroom and the only things that we do in classroom is just listening teacher's lecture and looking at white board. Due to these, I sometimes feel bored. However, I did lots of interesting things such as game in computer lab unlike classroom and I could choose a material which I wanted to do. That is why I was satisfied with studying in computer lab.
