  2. WHERE DID THAT IDEA COME FROM? • Having a tendency to incorporate technology into lear • Teaching English to “digital natives” (Prensky, 2001) after a “microelectronic revolution” (Lindenau, 1984). • Looking for ways to motivate digital natives (Warschaver, 2002; Greenfield, 2003) • Discovering .com • Creating my own network, MY BILGI http://bilgiprep.ning.com • Introducing MY BILGI to my summer school students

  3. INVOLVING THE STUDENTS • I used MY BILGI to encourage my Ss • to share ideas in the discussion board • to interact with each other in English outside the classroom settings • to learn from each other

  12. Giving the First Task

  13. Students got it! They received online feedback and corrected their errors.

  14. How was the interaction between the teacher and students during the feedback process?

  15. Student-Student Interaction

  26. SURVEY FINDINGS When asked why they mostly go online, all the students agreed that they get online to learn their assignments, to do the written tasks, to read the teacher’s feedback and write the second draft.

  27. SURVEY FINDINGS 72% of the Ss read the assignments their classmates have posted. 75% of the Ss think that they benefit from reading each other’s assignments online.
