Assignment #3 My thoughts and new findings on ESL Cyber Listening Lab

     This is my first time get to know CALL. It isn't that boring I thought before. Regarding the content of the course, it makes me know much more about how to use internet to improve my English skills.
     The ESL Cyber Listening Lab is really a helpful website. I can choose the applicable degree, then choose the subject of conversation I want. After I finish listening to the conversation I can move on to take a quiz. I think the best place of this kind of assistant website is that the users can replay the conversation till they understand what it's talking about. Although the students afraid of quizzes on the papers, they may feel less pressure to have a try on the website.
     CALL makes me want to learn more in English. It's more interesting and convenient to improve English skills by using computer than read the books or rewrite the vocabulary.
