It is fun and easy to learn with computers. Computers help us learn many things. Second year students have to spend more time on computers than first year student. English major like me mainly use a computer in Writing class, Reading class, Speaking class and Listening class. Of cause they use other classes. They surely use computer when they do homework. And now they can learn with internet. Actually, they can learn with you tube, English central, Power words and others. And they have very useful program like Google drive, office tools.
Mainly English students use computer in writing class. They write essays, book reviews, movie reviews, and free writing in own blogs. It is not good to write essay because they should write long sentence and use own head. But it is good for them. They have to reading books and writing reviews and typing homework every week. But they manage to get behind in own homework. They have own blog in writing class. And they can posting to blog from own cellphones. In blog, they write about own favorite series, daily, typing homework. It is good because they can write anything they like.
In Speaking class, they do English Central. It is site what they can learn pronunciation, conversation, listening with using headphone and mike. This site is breakthrough and wonderful. It is great help to develop an own ability to listening and speaking skills.English Central has many movie attract own interest. There are many kind of movies like commercial, movies, drama, animation, stars interview, speech of president. So they have a great
time doing that.
In reading class, English majors learn about English newspapers. we even if they don't read Japanese newspapers. It is difficult to reading English newspaper. But we gradually enjoy reading English newspaper. And of cause we given an assignment of English newspaper. We search articles taken along assignment and we write up Word soft of Office tools. And we have to do Power Words. It is program that we can build a strong own vocabulary. We have to finish the work assigned by my teacher.
In Listening class, English students like me download listening file and we do homework every week. In existing text book, we have to listen by CD. But now, we are in high-tech world, We can anything in computer. And we can search what we doesn't know words. A computer help us widely.
When we do own homework we usually use Office tools. Office tools has many program like Word, Excel,Power point. We became good at machines since we became second year student. These programs fix us spelling error and teach mus grammatical mistakes. Program of Google Drive is very useful. When I use Google Drive,we can share and save own file on desktop.
And English major sometimes learning from you tube. Most people like you tube and they often watching you tube when they free. We usually watching overseas artist's Music Video and drama. There are moving image with lyric and Japanese translation. So It it good lesson for us.
Everyone live in a world of convenience. It is analogy. If English major don't have computer they would strand because they should write homework by hand and they can't consult information quickly. Computer is of great use for us. But It is bad to excessive use of computer. When we use computer too much, we have problems like dry eye and loss of vision. So people who use computer should thinking about how to use computer. And they need more accurate knowledge about computers.
