Opis

The study evaluates the effect of Internet-Assisted Language Learning environment in ESP courses at the college of medicine, compared to the traditional method of using ESP textbooks. The use of the website sources has been proposed as a substitute to the traditional course textbooks which fail to satisfy students' learning needs. This classic teacher-centered approach with ready-made lectures has limited opportunities for more effective student-centered learning opportunities. The study is based on the assumption that students of medicine learn more and at a faster rate when they are stimulated enough. By means of improved teaching techniques, especially applying network and internet applications, language teachers may have higher achievements in instructing English for Specialized Purposes (ESP) than was previously thought. In teaching ESP teachers should know that the participants need English for educational purposes in order to pursue part or all of their studies. A course for someone who needs English in order to do one's job must take into account the environmental and social aspects, relationships, and the last but not the least, authenticity and up-to-date language.
