develop creativity in Asian students Drawing on this

experience, Dr Ng describes many real examples of what

creative teachers do to get their students to realize their

creative potential

USING IT IN THE LANGUAGE

CLASSROOM

A Guide for Teachers and Students in Asia

Third Edition

Philip Towndrow and Michael Vallance

In education, especially language teaching, the

relationship between an available technology and the

prevailing methodology has always been two-way

Language teachers have been ready to use whatever

technology was at hand Initially methodology embraced

Knowing why Information Technology (IT) is useful is a key
