Abstract
EduSoft, together with the Hebrew Herzlia Gymnasium, has delivered a computerized English learning center which includes multimedia English language learning courseware on CD-ROM. In this paper, we will discuss some of the socio-cultural effects of implementing such a multimedia classroom as part of the general English curriculum. Through observations and interviews, we have detailed the impact on students and also on teachers of implementing a multimedia English Center into the general English curriculum of one Tel Aviv junior high and high school.
