It would seem to me that in programs that have Internet access, it would be great to share with learners the existence of websites such as those mentioned above. Depending on the level of the learner, it may serve the purpose of teaching learners about the variety of resources available, for others it can serve as a way to practice web navigation, others can use it to practice reading, and yet others for writing skills.
