Listening Computers/stress

Understanding computers and computer terminology is essential for modern life, that is why I consider this listening activity I propose very useful for you.

Go to web page http://www.podcastsinenglish.com/pages/level2.shtml and play podcast number 57, but before, try to download by clicking here and here two activities designed for it.



And what to say about stress, some of you have listened to this podcast in class, some others haven't (we did not have the time). This is a chance for you to do it at home. Again, go to the same page as above and play podcast number 56. You'll find exercises for it here

2) What do you like and dislike about the teaching methods?

3) What things could be improved?

Feel free to add more points to the ones I've suggested if you deem it fit.
