Real material focussed on the field could be added with no effort Not only teachers but also students could collaborate with their knowledge (they know more than us) A way to train ourselves as ESP teachers Easily editable, error correction No need to have much ICT knowledge

34. March 8th 2008mjordano@flog.uned.es 34 What does this have to do with Global English…? Blogs, and web 2.0 are opened to the whole world… so that, students will read and listed to different Englishes. Real Englishes to work on in a ready- made way. It is a never ending space for new tools, gatgets and content according to the needs our our students/subject/level, etc.

35. March 8th 2008mjordano@flog.uned.es 35 Advantages and disadvatages of using one or another - Since Web 1.0 is moderated, you dont have to watch what others do. (+) -Students will only have your English as input (-). -You are the responsable of all the material used in you website (-). -More complicated to updated. (-) -Difficult to find a free hosting (-), except your instit. -Since 2.0 means sharing, bad content could be read by other student before the teacher. (-) -Students will be expossed to many Englishes.(+) -Real material from reliable publications (newspapers) could go directly to your students. (+) - very easy to update (+) -Hosting included
