I just completed my first website and was looking for some useful and attractive content to complement it. I will check out the link you gave me and attempt to adjust the size of the widget to suit my site. In my search for more information on the BBC widget, I came across your blog but wasn't aware of your Canadian connection until you mentioned TESL Ontario...I am writing from Germany but I am originally from Ontario. Hello John,

In fact, I have been working on a presentation for TESL Ontario and I used the basic HTML from the BBC site to change the WIDTH of the widget to 200 so it would fit nicely on a Moodle course I use. Change 280 to 200 or whatever number is acceptable for the width....... the Height seems to be stuck at 600 px . Look here for the guide page for tips. http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/specials/2009/07/090710_widget_page_1.shtml" Tips Page J.R. you can make it smaller.

In fact, many would be thrilled to find this great resource. However, although attractive, this widget is large and requires adequate space on a website. It would be nice if another smaller version existed. I think that the BBC Learning English widget is very useful for language trainers and learners alike.
