Learning1 online should make use of a number of Internet tools: e-mail lets you exchange letters between continents very cheaply2 and almost immediately. Large groups of people can share their discussions3 by using electronic4 lists to send every letter to everyone on the list. Electronic magazines bring you up-to-date5 topics, such as news, arts, and sports. Search engines allow you to look for anything you want on the Internet, including the holdings of major libraries. In a chat room you can have a real-time written talk. Audio6 and video bring the world to your computer -— you can listen to the world's radio stations, watch the evening news from another continent. And in an online conference7 you can even talk to your teacher and fellow students abroad.

Do you have e-mail? How much do you communicate with your friends over the Internet? Internet, the newest child in technology, is like a modern communication highway.
