The Advantages of a School Electronic Library

 

The Advantages of a School Electronic Library
As I have already stated in one of my previous blog entries :http://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/blogs/yuraganjalyan/ideal-text-book , there is no ideal English teaching text-book which could meet all the requirements of modern methodology of foreign language teaching. One text-book may be very good with its grammar delivery approach but on the other hand it may be lack of interesting texts and stories, another text-book may have good grammar delivery and texts but with badly chosen vocabulary. The third one may satisfy all the above mentioned requirements but still the texts may not be motivating for discussions. That's why I have never been obliged to use this or that English teaching text-book for my different classes. My basic concern has always been the achievement of the general aim of teaching English at our high school according to the standards (descriptors) or in other words qualitative demands of language competency on reading and listening comprehension, speaking and writing. And the electronic library of our school helps me a great deal with the realization of my English teaching subject syllabuses. At the beginning of a new school year I usually compile the new English teaching syllabuses and give a special order to our electronic library and they publish the electronic versions of the required pages of different grammar practice books and text-books of different levels. In this way I can use 5-6 different books like a bee collecting nectar from different favourite flowers or I can use no books at all. The Internet is an infinite resource if we use it reasonably.
