4: After I returned, I stopped being a TALK & CHALK teacher. I incorporated the use of computers in my teaching. My school has an INTERNET ROOM where an LCD connected to a Mac Power PC, a 233 Pentium, a T.V and a VCR can be found. I started making good use of these facilities to enhance the way I present my lessons using: Microsoft Office, Microsoft 3D Movie Maker, Multimedia, Print Artist 2.5, Grammar ROM, Sound Forge etc In 1997, I was chosen and sent again by the FULBRIGHT COMMISSION in Cairo to Salzburg, Austria to represent Egypt at Salzburg Seminar entitled: "Internet: networking, research and American popular culture." That seminar was a turning point in my career because I was introduced to some of the most effective techniques of using and implementing computers in an EFL classroom. I strategize with Dr. Chao-Meng Chen, the associate professor of English at the National Chengchi University and the National Taiwan University of Technology and Science. It was my first time to create a home page on the World Wide Web. We cooperated together create a Web page for our project entitled: "Bringing it all back home in an EFL class." If you have time and interested, you can have a quick look at our project on the following onlineaddress: http://www.salzburgseminar.org/ASC/csacl/progs/internet/group1/bo bdylan.htm In 1999, I was chosen by USAiD, IEE, USiS and IELP-II to travel to Georgia State University, Atlanta, USA to have an intensive course on COMPUTERS IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING. I was trained on the different educational uses of the INTERNET and computers in an efl/esl class.

In 2002, I was chosen again to participate in Georgia State University international supervision program for senior teachers in Atlanta, State of Georgia, USA. The program involved intensive training on supervision and class observation of teachers a senior teacher supervises. I was trained on the latest techniques and trends of this ESL / EFL area of study.
