1. Which of the ICT Integration Frameworks in Language is easily doable and which
one is a bit complicated?
Answer: Categories for Information communication and Technology (ICT) in
Teacher Training is very complicated and the doable one is Conversational
Framework of Laurillard (2002) 

2. What important realizations you have regarding frameworks mentioned in no. 1?

Answer: I had realized that Teacher training is more complex because there are
a lot of teacher who are lack of training to integrate language in ICT and there
are teacher who cannot know how to use ICT and I think every teacher should
undergo different training in terms of technology integration.
