The purposes of this study are:
1.To investigate the effect of web-based English Learning on English teaching
2.To understand the results of practicing the AJET¡¦ Project¡]Advanced Joint English Telecommunication¡^ in Kaohsiung Girls' High School
3.To understand the expectations of the teachers, students and students' parents in the activities of the AJET Project, and
4.To find out the problems in implementing the AJET Project and the ways to solve them.
The samples for this study are drawn from the teachers, students and students' parents taking part in the AJET Project in Kaohsiung Girls' High School from 1997.10 to 2002.6. Through careful observations and interviews, the conclusions of this study are as follows:
1.The AJET Project is of much help for the students in learning English because the Project facilitates them to share the living experiences and learning effects with the students of other schools at home and abroad.
2.The students taking part in the AJET Project get many excellent results in the contests held internationally and in the papers contributed to international journals.
3.The teachers participating in the AJET Project also have won the prizes for superb computer application and web-based learning.
Despite the the exciting results, there are still many difficulties, such as the program scheduling and the organization of the student participants of the AJET. The teachers of the AJET cannot take part in the Project full time because of being busy in their other routine work and the teaching resources provided by the school are limited. The participant students are divided into so many small learning groups that they cannot be taken good care of. Therefore they have to cooperate with their counterparts of other schools. The students have to spend so much of their time on the regular tests of other subjects that they cannot help themselves from neglecting the AJET. Many students have wrong conceptions of the AJET target. As a result, many students do not devote themselves earnestly to all the activities of the AJET and in the long run some students even abandon the project. The targets of the AJET are not only for students to learn English for the traditional purposes but also to introduce the technique, logic thinking and algorithm of the computer and to train students' leadership.
In view of the problems mentioned above, in this study some suggestions are made in the hope that they will be of help for the authorities concerned and all the participants (teachers, students and students' parents) of the AJET.
