objective of this method is to be able to use the foreign language in social
environments such as school, daily life and work life. This method in question
foresees the integration of information and communication technologies to
foreign language education. No longer just a textbook, such as audio or video
recordings made for training purposes using traditional tools and materials is
enough to sustain the foreign language education so today benefiting from the
multimedia approach in teaching and learning tools and materials are adopted.

success using information and communication technology-based tools and
materials in foreign language education issue has been studied. The drastic
change in the Internet, which provides an important tool in terms of
educational software known as "education without walls'' provides to sustain the teaching and learning activities without
being bound to any venue. Through distance education is now provided by the
