Abstract
Description
There is no doubt that the Internet is one of the most exciting of new technologies and one which will eventually transform the way that the teaching and learning of English, and the business of ELT is conducted. But there is a great deal of hype about the new technologies, and often a corresponding disappointment when experience demonstrates their limitations. There is also not a little anxiety about the whole business amongst those who fear being overtaken by developments not only in communications technology, but also in the kinds of skills required by teachers, managers, and learners.
