CALL2 - WEBSITE EVALUATION
2008 MARCH
The following list has been set up on the basis of the links you provided. You can conceive of it as a first version
of a collection of links that will be (or can be extended any time) later. The ones next to which you find an x are
not concrete activities, still they can give you a good start.
We are going to make use of it in the 2nd semester and it will support our first activity: a few links are chosen to
be compared and contrasted through evaluation.
TASK
Prepare the task for the next lesson for discussion:
1. On the basis of the list of criteria you have been using since the 1st semester, evaluate the following
websites at least from six aspects irrespective of the actual content (we do not fit them into the teaching
context yet).
2. State why you would apply it as an on-course activity.
3. In case there are in such features, decide why you would not take any of them to class.
4. Pick the one you think is the most suitable or appropriate for in-class use.
