English language competence has become more and more important in today's world. Using computer technology to enhance second/foreign language learning is not a new practice. For over 30 years, researchers and teachers worldwide have been using computer technology in teaching foreign language. In recent years, some Taiwanese teachers have begun to incorporate TELL/CALL (computer assisted language learning) into English language education. However TELL/CALL remains not popular among Taiwanese teachers, and may in-service English teachers are not able to catch up with the rapid development of information technology. Without proper trainings, English teachers will not be able to incorporate technology into teaching. In fact, the web is an ideal platform to deliver online courses and trainings. Language teachers can gain access to web courses and resources from any place at anytime. In responding to the pressing needs of Taiwanese EFL teachers, in this paper we introduce various web-based TELL/CALL courses and resources to in-service Taiwanese teachers. It is expected that more English teachers will make good use of these local and international resources and will try to better integrate computer and information technology into their teaching.
