Bill Gates: Online Learning
Optimization of the best resources available in the Internet.
“We should focus on having at least one great course online for each subject rather than lots of mediocre courses.”
Pioneers in sharing intellectual and professional resources to the world:
Open Course Ware (OCW) – MIT
Open Learning Initiative (OLI) – Carnegie Mellon University
Repository of Knowledge Resources

Survey – Three PartsRespondents’ Attitude towards Technology
Technology Preferred in ESP by the learners
Effect of Technology on Learners and their Learning Style
Analysis of the findings - the new millennium learners are strongly inclined towards blending technology into the ESP teaching learning process
Inference - Teachers of ESP in engineering colleges have to be aware of the emerging trends in the fields of learning theory, teaching methodology, and educational technology
