Hi ssgg,

I was actually waiting for annawang to be a bit more specific.
Would it be of any use if I posted 40 links here?

Tell me what YOU are interested in and I will post a few links concerning the topic. ( If I have any!)

what i want to get is research practices, that is, specific and operational studies made by someone else which i can maybe follow their research procedues to test their findings in order to complete my thesis whinin one and half year. these studies must be related to network and cooperative english learning. for example, what kind of influence network will play on cooperative language learning? what are their main teaching models? and so so.

did i make myself clear?

by the way, this afternoon my tutor asked to find some useful websites concerning the application of modern technology to language learning and teaching, especially EFL. it would be the best if such websites include some related theses. even she wants to subscribe them by credit card.
would you pls recommend me some?

thanks for your reply. i am so excited!

have a nice day!

hi! ssgg, have a nice day! happy Women's day!

thanks for your response, would you like offer me some information on web-based EFL cooperative learning? remember, there are plenty of articles discussing about either cooperative EFL learning or network-based english learning and teaching respectively. but what i need is how to apply cooperative theories into EFL learning under the web environment, this is their integration in english learning and teaching, especially some practical studies which have detailed research procedure for me to follow.

waiting for your early reply.


best regards,

hi Adam,

glad to receive your mail, is your research direction also related to computer-assisted english teaching and learning? if so, maybe we can often discuss about it and share our information and views or opinions.

besides two websites recommend by you, i can give you more, are you interested in them or not? but i have to collect them together and send you next time.

Good luck!

hi, sita,

many many thanks for your useful information which give really me a shock. i am 100% sure they will be very helpful and fruitful for my research.

by the way, my second foreign language is Deutsch, i was once worked as english interpreter for a elder German engineer. we got along well with each other, and this gave me a deep impression on German.

Nice to make friends with you, another German.

thanks again.

best regards,
