“Challenges of creating web-based activities in Sally Morrison” Interactive language Learning on the Web”.

 

    Sally Morrison in his article mentions some of the difficulties that face a language teacher who want to create web-based activities. First, the teachers do not have the ability and knowledge of how create Web-based activities. Second, the students use variety of computers with a variety of Web browsers to access the web. Third, the teachers need to design web activities that meet accessibility guidelines for the student with special needs which is very difficult.

    In my opinion, there are many difficulties that will face teachers in Saudi Arabia in creating web-based activities. First, some teachers lack the technical skill and knowledge of creating web activities. Second, the Computers and online devices are not available in language classrooms. Even if the computers are available in classrooms, the school does not have the internet to access the web. Third, some students haven’t been attached to technology and they do not know how to use it like poor students and student who lives in villages. Fourth, the content of the textbooks are not flexible to match web activities. These are the greatest challenge of using web-based activities in Saudi Arabia.
