Chapter 16 & 17
In chapters 16 and 17 the book highlights the tools used for teaching language and content areas being taught in different languages. The information on Chapter 16 was a reminder on which tools should be used such as textbooks, word processors, the internet, etc. However I think internet in the classroom is always a sensitive subject because many children must be monitored when using the computer. As for chapter 17 I think it questions the effectiveness of content areas being taught in other languages. I support content areas to be taught in another language because students will have either another language to learn or further their understanding of an already understood language.

With the current Internet Culture, monitored Internet browsing needs to be implemented in regards to classrooms. I think the use of restricted or limited internet access in the classrooms needs to be available. Or there could always be a guided internet session with the teacher.
