Technology Enhamced Lesson Plans

This week I read an article by Krajka about using the internet in teaching writing which was quite helpful in presenting different writing genres that can be taught by using the interent. I used one website mentioned in the article which can be only used with high levels. So, I suppose that there's not much variety in websites that build writing skills because you always need to relate them to Ss' levels and needs.

Also, I designed a technology based lesson plan which included a number of websites that supports the grammar part in the lesson. Nevertheless, I always find writing lesson plans are quite tedious. I don't know why? !! I always tend to use a checklist or short notes and I always believe that the best plan is not to have a plan..:))) what do you think?

It is worthy mentioning, however, that it does not mean that I underestimate planning. Planning will remain the key of successful teaching. Remember, When you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Cheers!
