Abstract

A good way to encourage the self- study strategy is by sharing free online material that the students can access anytime they want, being updated constantly to keep the interest among the students. This also encourages the students to make their own research and share with the members in a feedback process. No doubt, this research will be a great benefit for the students of the Foreign Language Department, particularly the ones of the English Advanced Level, since its objective is to demonstrate teachers and students the advantages of using blogs as audio and video platforms focused on listening exercises to develop their listening skills. By sharing a community customized blog in this area, we pretend to generate results from the methods and at the same time to encourage the enhancement of this modern approach in the University of El Salvador. Now that the recent virtual incursion in education has reached its objective to accomplish tasks efficiently and quickly. According to some experts, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) play an important role in education as Roblyer mentioned: "Now that technology is becoming more common in schools, its potential for enhancing teaching and learning is being recognized. Technologies are being described as essential tools of the teaching trade” (2006).
