The use of the communication and information technology tools can aid students in their lab work to add more flexibility to the accessibility and providing of up-to-date higher education allowing students accessing knowledge anytime, anywhere which will facilitate the lifelong learning and provide accessibility to the curriculum and other students' resources from anywhere at any time. Laboratory work by students in the information technology and engineering fields of study is a must requirement in all accreditation agencies and targeted employment places. This chapter demonstrates a project based learning technique that has been integrated with ordinary classes in computer network courses. The tools used in this study concentrates on the modeling and simulation of different aspect of computer networking that highlight different skills needed to any computer network engineer.


Information technology spreads through the life of the whole society in the educational, professional, and personal lives.

Cultural diversity and language variants resulting from the fast development of information technology influence the college English teaching including its methods and contents. Based on this background, we have discussed the understanding of multimodality and multiliteracies in the first part. Then through the research about college students’ awareness and level of multiliteracies, we can conclude that college students’ weak performance in multiliteracies. Therefore, some methods are suggested to improve college students’ multiliteracies and at last the instructions that the concept of multiliteracies has brought about for college English teaching are discussed.
