EVALUATING TIME

Hello guys,
How is your week going? Keeping school up with working is awful.I am  about to sleep any time I find somewhere hot because  I am so tired these days.Mid-terms are on the way.Sleepless nights are waiting for me..Whatever.. I hope you are doing well.

This weeks' task is evaluating an ELT website.You know that  internet is full of websites aiming to make it easy for teachers to teach.These websites provide so many activities,lesson plans,speaking and listenning materials etc.

The website I chose to evaluate is teachit.co.uk .As it is clear from the name of it, it is an England originated website providing materials for teachers and also individual learners.

I give high importance to the people behind the website while searching materials from web.When we click About me section in this website, unfortunately we can't see any biographical information about the creators of the website.There is a list of managers,editor,asistants but we are not able to learn who they are, where they study or their teaching career.This is the first minus  for this website.
In terms of content website  contains many activities lesson plans,teaching packs and resource collections avaible to use either free or paid versions.Target audience of the website is primarily teachers but learners can also benefit.The aim of the website seems commercial initially but after searching for a while we can find a bunch of free resources too.Main purpose is to provide elt materials for teachers indeed.There is no sign of being up-to-date in the interface of the website but a few sections are aiming to present latest resources.After exploring a while website seems to be errorless, as the creators are English originated,this  is not suprising: ) There is no broken links in the website,I guess being a paid one forcing them to be defect-free.For a negative critisism I did not like the images and pictures of the website as they are so pale in color and not appealing for me.

As a conclusion, teachit.co.uk is a nice source of activity and ELT materials but when we compare it with other  websites  it looks a bit insufficient.For this reason I  do not recommend this website to my friends and teachers.There are much better websites in the internet.

If you would like to have look at the outlook of the website click on the screenshot I added.You can see it bigger this way.

Have a good weekend..See you.
