The tangle of knowledge and culture: Humans surfing on the Internet. Chances for self-education in cyberspace
Journal Title: Edukacyjna Analiza Transakcyjna - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue
Abstract
This article shows how Internet resources can be used in self-education. Increasingly, the cyberspace is used for quick acquisition of new qualifications. Recently, Internet sites offering language courses are becoming more and more popular in cyberspace activity. Rarely, however, do we come across pages that – apart from education – offer something more. This article attempts to describe one innovative site (a special portal) devoted to learning a language, which is a combination of a social community and education. This is a new way of self-educating activity. On one hand, we can study languages, and, on the other hand, we have contact with multi-culture resources. Self-education allows for communicating with people of different nationalities: talking with e.g. English, Italian or Spanish people. Each of them, apart from the exchange of language experiences, offers special, individual cultural values. At the same time we can learn and be in touch with multiculturalism. In addition, interactive pages and their attractive design allow for more effective and enjoyable learning in the comfort of people’s own home Thanks to the multilateral impact, involving intellect and emotions, even adults can learn as easy as children.
