Mediated by Computer
%I National Institute of Education Phnom Penh, Cambodia
%X Despite of Indonesian government's initiative for enhancing technology in educational practices,
the use of computer to mediate teaching/learning seems to be hesitant. This paper is to expose students' recognition of learning English reading mediated by computer. Case study was used as research design. Results of the research expose no evidence that students with better English background would be successful in this mode of learning reading. However, students who participate more in learning sessions tend to have better achievement in English reading. Furthermore, students recognize that computer mediated learning reading is interesting and brings benefits from the view point of learning flexibility, interactivity, variety of contents, and performance by which motivate them to complete their own learning. The absence of teacher falls into two: 1) teacher's absence would lower students' psychological burden, and 2) explanations from teacher remains needed in face-to-face interaction.
