ESL and Technology

My students have now learned to log on to their e-mail acounts, and post a blog. Some students caught on right away, others needed additional training, but now everyone knows how to at least send one e-mail. This week students finished choosing their background template colors, and a few students proceeded to the third paragraph activity. So far, students are reluctant to include photos, both for technical and privacy reasons, having a fear perhaps that the internet is dangerous to them.
