However, it is very interesting reading your impressions on it, especially what you mentioned about learner autonomy.Diego Mideroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05365220186407896778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5557254.post-7076152606295306062009-10-08T07:33:41.696-05:002009-10-08T07:33:41.696-05:00Second life is something that brought up a major d...Second life is something that brought up a major divide in the online segment.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.british-study.com/adults/english-language-schools/oxford/" rel="nofollow">english school oxford</a><br /><br />Thankfully it has died down and there is not much relevance of it now.<br /><br />Thanks for the share.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5557254.post-7827454316318934202009-08-17T05:16:09.081-05:002009-08-17T05:16:09.081-05:00Thankfully the hype has died down, Michiel.
