The benefit of chat room  Students are more inclined to participate since the context is less formal  Many students are already familiar with chat and use it for recreational purposes  Chat generates a lot of writing (although students tend not to recognize this medium as producing "real writing" - still you might use this opportunity to talk about what "real writing is" and why it's viewed as more valid than informal writing)  Chat can generate ideas which may not arise during a classroom discussion

 It's usually free and the person receiving it gets the message within seconds.  People can also transfer files and pictures from one location to the another, making it almost a necessity in modern life.

 Before the class 1. Make contact with the teacher of a similar class in term of level, class size and access to technology 2. Learners also need to be confident about how to use the chat program. 3. With the teacher of other class, set a time for the chat. 4. Try out with other teacher before class

 Class room management issues 1. Ideally learners are put in pairs for the first chat. 2. Learners can either conduct the cat in pairs, or consecutive learners can be allowed access to the same computer for a certain amount of time 3. Using voice chat rather than text

 During the cat 1. Provide hand out worksheet 2. Each learner has a slightly different worksheet 3. Asking questions on their worksheet 4. Print out their chat script and complete the worksheet from that, once the cat is finished.

 After chat 1. Display their profile in the classroom separately 2 Create learner profile in an inter-class blog
