This article has educating topic for teacher. It contains all about technology used in second language learning. It told us about history of technology development that is used in second language learning. Moreover it told us specifically about the technology development applying in various teaching methods. And also it explained about the advantages and the disadvantages when we used technology in different teaching methods. Teacher candidates should read this article because it provides new teaching method that is integrated to technology development. All this time, there are so many kinds of technology that have already been created to facilitate learning. But every kinds of technology can’t be used in certain teaching method. Each technology has its own function to support teaching such as speaker and headset support audio-lingual method.
Nowadays, technology is not something new for everyone but it becomes lifestyle. Before coming technology we pumped to get water but using technology we can just get it by a click. It likes some tools to make our life run easier. But sometimes teaching is easy without technology even it becomes more difficult with technology such as sport education. In sport education we just need the ball and the field and then we do more practice. We don’t need to use computer to support this learning. Using technology in teaching will be easy if learning in long distance system. We can use classjump.com to have an online class. And it will be easy to submit the assignment. But we will need a cost to buy a computer, usb modem, flashdisk, and so on. Therefore technology is just human made. It has its advantages and disadvantages. Perfection is just for god.
