| Summary: | Internet provides us, as teachers, with a wide range of tools and resources for practising English in an online environment. However, due to the vast amount of digital resources at our disposal today, and taking into account that not everything found on the net is reliable, we have no other option but to evaluate the resources. On the other hand, on the net we can find several already-created templates for analysing online resources. But, quite often, most of these templates include many indicators that will make the task of evaluating more time consuming, or do not include indicators for assessing the adequacy of the site as far as level, theme and linguistic skills of a foreign language, in our case, English, are concerned. The purpose of this paper is to propose a template enabling ESL or EFL teachers to gather suitable information per online resource and also to analyse some real sites in accordance with the parameters and indicators of the template.
