Details This ongoing study looks at how over 150 first-year English-language students navigated, used, and evaluated a variety of sites and activities, both in and out of class. The various projects were evaluated primarily through questionnaires, in addition to the teacher's class observations and notes. This study assessed the student evaluations of the sites and whether the students would continue using them. It also examined how teachers can promote this type of self-directed learning that achieves clear goals with their own students.
