CONCLUSION We liked working in a group because we are

friends and it was easy to work, we learnt a lot of our topic, because we chose this topic and we found it fun and interesting. We felt motivated because it is our country, and we learnt more about it. We feel good because we know how to use a computer and the work became easier to do. Some advantages are that the information is all in the website and it’s in order, also it is in English, so, that way we learn more English, we learn vocabulary, pronunciation, and so on.
