Resumen:
ost current ESL practices include components of blended learning which involve a variety of ICT tools. The Faculty of Languages at the National University of Cordoba, Argentina, has been gradually but systematically incorporating ITC to most of its undergraduate courses in the five-year EFL teaching training programme. In the Methods course we teach we make use of the Moodle platform to offer students the possibility of participating in activities whose primary aim is the development of reflection. This paper reports on an experience in the use of electronic forums to support student teachers, in their initial stage of teacher education, to develop reflective skills.
