Can You help me, please?

Can you help me in the following, please?
1. Assume that suddenly while presenting listening lesson to your students that the listening icon didn�t work properly or that there wasn�t any loud speaker available; how would you handle the situation?
2. What obstacles may face the EIO( English Interactive Online) end-user, and the best problem-solving strategies to be used.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Youness
Seems to me you want some strategies to deal / solve these tragedies that, some now and then, may happen during a lesson; we have a listening but we don �t have net connection to the site, or there is no electricity or...
Well, as this is quite common, because there are many ways to spoil a beautiful lesson, I have a few tips I can tell. When I have an audio track, I always try to have it in several formats ( mp3, wave ... ), if one doesn �t work, may be that some other one will. I always try to check in advance what will work. I always have a print of the audio, so, may be I end up reading the text myself. 
The second one is easier to solve, or, at least to avoid. Whenever I need something on line, I always try to make a download to my laptop ( when possible ). Sometimes I have the same tasks available in several places - my laptop, my pen drive, my 4shared, my blog, my moodle folder; this way it �s almost impossible to forget things at home.
Thecnology, however, is a little capricious - if you need the projector and it stops working well, all the lesson will have to be changed; and sometimes we don �t have paper copies for the students, cause either they were not necessary or we wanted to save paper.
That �s a big problem.
Thanks for this topic, I can �t wait to hear from others, want to get some brilliant ideas about solving these problems.
