Many computer experts claim that traditional language learning methods used in
classrooms will gradually be replaced by newer methods such as e-learning and attending
virtual classrooms.

Trang 2/4
 E-learning is short for electronic learning and, as the name suggests, it means any kind of
learning environment which is electronic. On the Internet there are countless sites dedicated to
language learning. These include interact games, worksheets, puzzles, quizzes and so on.
It is also claimed that a day may come when, instead of going to class, we will log on
from our home computer, and “meet” our teacher and other learners in a “virtual” classroom.
Although this type of learning environment is quite similar to the traditional classroom, it
makes the learner more independent and flexible. The teacher encourages learners to analyze
what and how they want to learn and then helps them to achieve those ends. Virtual classrooms
can use all the online resources available and usually use a type of chat room to practise oral
communication.
So are the days of the traditional classroom numbered? It is unlikely. However, the new
media will play an increasingly important part in all learning and will complement traditional
English teaching rather than replace it entirely.
