As the Internet provides authentic, captivating and useful sources for language teachers and learners, the capability of Internet as an educational tool is only limited by the imagination and creativity of both language users. As such, it is pertinent for a study to be carried out in evaluating websites for ESL classroom teaching and learning. In this study, 4 relevant ESL websites have been selected and evaluated using the criteria for website evaluation by Mohamed Amin Embi (2004). A total group of 32 learners of KUIM responded to the self-report questionnaire consisting of Likert scale items. The analysis of the data is of descriptive statistics, which include frequency counts and mean scores. Results obtained identified that both groups responded positively towards the use of websites in ESL learning. Identification of the relevant criteria of the selected ESL websites that they find would enhance and motivate learning were also made. 2009-03-18T07:44:37Z 2009-03-18T07:44:37Z 2009-03-18T07:44:37Z Conference Paper http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/1197 en
