In the cloud or on the school network? Which is best [Nalan]
I think online dictionaries on the school
network are useful resources for language learning because they can be used in several
different ways. For example, a search
box for an online dictionary can be added to a class or school blog so that
students have access to the dictionary anytime, anywhere to look up the meaning
of a new word. This would give the students flexibility while studying.
Likewise, links to online dictionaries on the school website could also be a useful
resource for students. Apart from these, CD-ROM dictionaries can also be loaded
onto the computers in the self-study centres for student use. To sum up, I
think online dictionaries on the school network is better because it provides
easy access to students whereas online
dictionaries in the cloud is not user-friendly
because a separate page needs to be opened each time the student wants to use a
dictionary.
