"The Internet is a constantly evolving tool which schools are using in increasingly
diverse ways to support language learning. This new edition of InfoTech 3 offers ideas
and strategies for exploiting the Web and making the most of its increasing interactivity,
faster access and greater storage capacity. The book reviews some fundamental changes to
the way languages will be taught and learned in the next years. It is complemented by a
special Web page which ensures that links to the recommended websites are regularly
updated and that the websites can be accessed instantly."
