stage. At this stage, the system may need to be changed slightly. There is usually an agreement with the customer to maintain or take care of the system for the time it’s in use, for example, by solving problems that arise or renewing parts of the system that can be improved.
Unit 4, Lesson 1, Task 1 MAYSOUN: Have you got some ideas about what you want to write?
CHEN: Not really. I searched for computer-based learning on the Internet and I found some information on Wikipedia. That’s all I’ve done so far.
GUY: I used the Internet for my assignments last year, but my lecturers told me to find more reliable information.
MAYSOUN: Yes, Wikipedia is a good place to go for an overview, but they want to see if you know how to use other sources to find information.
GUY: My lecturers also said I should have my own ideas and compare them to the information I find.
MAYSOUN: OK, so let’s think what we all know about learning on computers and learning in classrooms. Chen, what did you find on Wikipedia?
CHEN: Well, they say it’s more convenient using computers. You can study any time and you can take more time if you need to.
GUY: That’s true, but you have to know how to study smart with computers; you have to set your own deadlines, because there’s no teacher to set them for you and remind you about them. I think I would never finish my course if it was all computer-based learning.
CHEN: Well, it can be cheaper, too. You can study at home, so you don’t need to travel and live in another country.
MAYSOUN: Yes, it’s more flexible. You can study at home and work at the same time. I had to give up a good job to come here. My husband gave up his job, too.
GUY: I like classrooms because you can discuss ideas with other students and the teacher. Computers are less sociable.
Maysoun: I like classrooms better, too. I like to see people when I talk to them.
CHEN: We had lots of discussions on the pre-sessional course, but I didn’t like class discussion because I can’t speak quickly. I like discussing on the computer – I have more time to think what to say.
