Ideas about how to use chatting in my classes

There are more than 50 students in my class. Currently it is impossible to equip the classrooms with the corresponding number of computers. Therefore, chatting is feasible outside the class not inside.

Reactions to chatting

We know some language teachers are not in favor of technologies in their classes, suspecting the effect of implementing them in terms of facilitating students’ language learning. But I do agree with Nikki’s idea that teachers who use technologies will surpass those who do not.


Chatting is an ideal way for students with diverse background to communicate. By talking online students can realize the value of learning the target language and get strong motivation as well as confidence from problem solving.
