What is TH? How is TH applied to L2 reading class?"Students will be practicing decision making and problem solving skills. Many times when a student visits the first link to solve a quest, there is a choice to be made as to where to go next. Students will usually work in pairs or small groups while at the computer. They will be interacting socially and collaborating to reach decisions as to how to proceed to find the correct information. As they discuss the problems, the language development of the students will certainly be stimulated and enhanced. There is also a lot of opportunity to practice reading."
