In my last post I spoke about some lovely things I was going to talk about within this blog. I also mentioned that although I intend on keeping this blog up going forward I did in fact start it for an assignment for college. I know the title looks a little scary and no one really likes to hear the term "assignment" but I have found that I thoroughly enjoyed this one as I got to look and think about different tools of teaching that I have never even heard of before, let alone tried to understand.
There will be 6 posts as part of this assignment, this is of course the first, An introduction to what I will be talking about.
The assignment guidelines stated that we were to write a blog titled 5 great tools for learning and teaching. Thanks to permission from my lecturer I have been able to include the posts from that blog within this current blog. I am hoping that if even one person reads these posts, and learns some new information regarding any of the 5 tools I put up, that I will have done the assignment justice.
The subjects I hope to teach will be English and Adult Literacy. Drawing from those subjects the tools I have found the most helpful in my teaching and that hopefully my students will find most helpful in their learning are as follows:
- Examtime.com
- InstaGrok
- YouTube
- Socrative
- EverythingESL.net
I will take each one of these and explain the pros and cons as well as giving my opinion on how I have found they have helped or hindered over the last number of weeks.
I hope you can take something valuable away to any of your own students from them as I have.
Thanks for reading.
Nicola
