11、n recent years, the developments of net technologies bring many advantages to the educational fields. As a result of these developments, a new branch which is Online Education by Computer Assisted Language Learning in applied linguistics is flourished. It is obvious to everyone that traditional mode

12、l of classroom teaching can no longer meet students needs. The Online Education becomes an important approach to teaching English.Generally speaking, it is possible to say that computer revolution has been done and it is impossible to keep it away from us. So the teachers must learn to live together

13、 with it, and benefit from using it. Through this new technology，classroom teaching will be more attractive and enjoyable; learning and teaching will be a real fun for both the students and the teachers.Many teachers, researchers and educators analyze some problems existing in Traditional English Ed

14、ucation, such as the lack of natural language environment, the limitation of educational resources, the boring teaching and learning. So many teachers and educators introduce us a new teaching technology - the Online English Education, and display some advantages of it. Most people are not familiar

15、with it, so I hope more teachers will put it into the classroom teaching. With the comparisons between Traditional English Education and Online English Education, the author will discuss more advantages about Online English Education, especially, the email as the most convenient communicative way. H

16、owever, the Traditional English Education also has its advantages, and Online English Education has its disadvantages as well. Teachers should try their best to integrate the both together in their teaching. Only in this way can our country foster the young who are full of creativeness and innovatio

17、n, which is also one policy of Chinese education.I. Analysis of Traditional English Education and Online English EducationThe Traditional English Education in our country is based on the Classroom English Language Teaching. This English Educational pattern can be generalized as textbook-centered. In

18、 a most common English class, a teacher usually starts with explaining the new words and phrases of a text, and then the content in the text. After analyzing the text, the teacher may give some assignments involving in the text for students and finally correct their homework. Thats how teacher organ

19、izes the class using a textbook in a classroom.A. Some Problems in Traditional English Education1. Lack of Natural Language Environment As for this traditional pattern, there exist some problems in teaching. For example, the students study English without a natural language environment，their own nat

20、ive tongue always interrupt them.2. The Limitation of English LearningThe ways of English studying are limited in one or two books, such as the grammatical book, the reading and writing book and so on, which let the learners spontaneously think that the learning of English is just the reciting of gr

21、ammars and vocabularies. How boring this studying way is! Furthermore, the traditional pattern of English teaching is still focusing on examination. The knowledge about English language and background is very little, which causes a lack of cultural knowledge. So the learners cannot understand Englis

22、h in the whole facets and they cannot master the concrete language points flexibly.3. All the Class under the Teachers ControlIn the class, the teachers words are all right. The students are absolutely under the teachers control. In this pattern, there is no way to distinguish teaching from learning

23、 because students learning activities are involved in teachers teaching activities. A great problem arising from this kind of education pattern is that students are used to waiting for learning knowledge instead of producing new things actively.Of course, this does not mean we should not use any Tra

24、ditional English Education. Otherwise, the Traditional English Education also has some advantages.B. The Advantages of the Traditional English Education1. Easily Acceptation to the Old or Middle Aged Teachers The old or middle age teachers can easily accept it. Now, in the junior or senior school, t

25、here are so many old teachers who have got enough experience in the teaching, but the fast development of the society and the reform of the education systems make them in the trouble. They suddenly dont know what to do in the classroom and they are puzzled to face the computer. So it needs time for

26、Online English Education to transform from Traditional English Education.2. Making the Students Know More about the TextbookAt present, the government changes the traditional idea in the education, and takes the quality of the education as the most important aim, develops the students ability in the

27、 filed of the morally, intellectually, physically, aesthetic and labor. However, at the same time, we must get good grade or entry a famous university, so we must study very hard and take many exam papers. This Traditional English Education can make the students get more knowledge from the textbook,

28、 and the resource of the material also can reduce the burden on the students shoulders， this pattern education also gives the exam skills to students.3. Better Communication Between Teachers and StudentsIn the traditional classroom, the teachers and the students can comminute better. If the students

29、 have something that they dont understand, the teacher can give more details to them. Also the teacher can give her or his love and care to them not only in the teaching classroom but also in their daily life. The teacher and the students can be familiar with each other and get more on common. So th

30、e Traditional English Education is full of the emotion. Moreover, the teacher can take her or his teaching process more flexibly according to the students level of the study.C. Analysis of Online English EducationNowadays, the Internet is becoming significant in our society. People believe that educ

31、ation has the potential to mobilize people and to equip them with capacity of innovation and creation, versatility and adaptability. “Here the potential of new internet technologies offer such people new opportunities for learning and achieving their aspirations” (Martino, 6).1. Offering Us a Lot.On

32、line English Education is a comfortable way to learn English at your home or office. This education is suitable for students who wish to improve their English level or for teachers who wish to continue to learn. Firstly, let us look at what the Online English Education can offer us. As Martino argue

33、s, “One of the main features of the Internet is its openness, its lack of structure or control”. Through the Internet, it is possible to extend learning and teaching activities. What the Internet technologies can provide us is one-teacher-to-many students interaction mode. With regard to language le

34、arning, virtual reality has the potential to transport learners to the country where they are learning its language and give them the sense“Wandering through the streets of a foreign city” and “talking to the foreign people” they meet. Although the internet cannot replace first-hand experience, it m

35、ay be much more convenient and accessible in teams of time and money, as it is a bank of resources at all times. You need only click the mouse, the learners can access through the internet and get whatever they need. For example, there are many websites which provide free resources for teachers and

36、students. Search Abraham Lincoln, click :/ /liho, and Christmas Day, click :/ sina and so on.2. Emails Are One of the Most Convenient Communicative Ways.Another chief channel of Online English Educational facilities is the email, which is a rapid way to communicate. “It doesnt allow the immed

37、iate interruption to our thinking processes” (Jones, K 89). But now the email allows our time to thought. Thanks to the email, the teacher can have convenient and prompt communications with the students, offering those necessary help and counsel whenever needed and available. For example, Warchauer

38、analyzed the traditional hand-in-and- return method of the compositions, he advised us to use the email. “Email provides a perfect mechanism for students to submit draft and for teachers to look them over at their convenience and the teacher send draft back with comments again and again. New ideas a

39、re shared promptly and can be responded to quickly. The students can not only send their writing to the teachers, but also send their work to each other simultaneously. As a result, an individual student can receive comments from all classmates.” (Wang Qiang,226).3. The Teacher Can Create a Virtual

40、Classroom Currently, a large number of schools offer remote courses.The Virtual Classroom is a teaching and learning environment located within a computer-mediated communication system. The objectives of a Virtual Classroom are to improve the access of advanced educational experience by allowing stu

41、dents and instructors to participate in remote learning communities using personal computers at home or at work; and to improve the quality and effectiveness of education by using computer to support a collaboratative learning process. This mode of learning can be more interactive and more effective

42、 than the traditional (physical) classroom.One cannot, for example, learn to paint by viewing a finished painting; rather, one must see the evolution of the paining. The student must observe the instructors mental process and the instructor must observe that of the student. The special software stru

43、ctures incorporated in this system were specifically designed to support collaborative learning, including discussions, student presentations, joint projects, debates, role-playing games, etc. Participation is generally asynchronous; that is, the Virtual Classroom participants may dial in any time a

44、nd from any location in the world accessible by a reliable telephone system.An excellent illustration is the Question-Answer Activity, where if the instructor asks a discussion question, every student must answer before facing the other students. This feature in Virtual Classroom is equal participat

45、ion in any discussion issue that the instructor triggers in this manner. It forces each student to think independently. Another key facility is using of anonymity or pen names. For example, many students with woke experience can point out mistakes without embarrassing their company. This sharing of

46、experience is important to making many courses more relevant to the students who have not lived through such experiences. Many of the features of the current system are summarized in the communication structures table.D. The Disadvantages of the Online English Education1. Making a Distance between P

47、eoples EmotionThe Online English Education needs the computer, if we need information that we want; we need by just click at the mouse. The students and the teachers communicate through the computer. Thus, they lack of emotion. If the students have some difficulties but they dont want to ask the tea

48、cher, the teacher also doesnt know about his or her students level of the study, then the teacher cant be flexibly to control the teaching classroom. So there is something wrong with the Online English Education.2. Restriction of Condition. As our country developing, so many high science and technol

49、ogy are used into the education system. In city, every school has her own multimedia classroom and almost every child can operate computer. However, there are many poor places, the rural children have limited resource of the study, most of them still use the simplest tools, such as the stone desk, l

50、imestone as chalk, they love textbook but only to copy it by hand. So, it is still very hard to put the Online Education into widely use. But I believe one day it will be widely used.3. Making Students Lazier.The Internet is widely used, and it can be used in studying, playing games, shopping, surfi

51、ng the material and so on. Many students may be good at study, but have no time to finish the homework, so they surf the Internet and copy others production. Moreover, some students arent interested in the study, when teacher explain the content of text, they may think it is very boring, so they pla

52、y games or do what they want to do in the classroom.II Comparison between Traditional English Education and Online English EducationTeachers, students and learning material are the three main factors in the whole process of English Education. Traditional English Education and Online English Educatio

53、n greatly differ from each other in the following aspects.A. Teachers RoleHarmer says,“Teacher plays multiple roles in communicative activities as controller, as assessor, as organizer, as prompter, as resource” （Wang Qiang, 69）. A teacher is a decisive factor in second language acquisition because

54、the purpose of language teaching is not to pass on special knowledge to students but to train students to apply knowledge in communication. Only through a great number of practical activities both in and out of classroom, the abilities can be developed among students. So, one of the most important competences is whether teacher can bring students interest and initiative into the class and train them to learn by themselves. More than 900 university English teachers in 48 universities and colleagues we
