Web 2.0 as Cognitive Tools in Teaching a Foreign Language

My experience in integrating Web 2.0 applications in teaching English as a foreign language has proven to be one of my most inspiring experiences. Involving EFL and ESL students in online collaborative projects using blogs and various social networking applications has constantly expanded the boundaries of my classroom and enhanced the learning process.It allowed me to bring the exciting world of modern technologies in class and empower students to become creators of online content. It encouraged my students to experiment with their creativity and do so much more than simply learn a language. I have, therefore, descovered one of the greatest teaching tools ever created - the Web 2.0.
