Apps and programs used to create a project

I was thinking the other day, since the finals are just around the corner, about my final project and also about different programs you can use when wanting to make your project as nice as possible. 

That is the reason why l am going to write on this blog about my friends suggestions on apps and programs that can help us when working on projects and that l found very helpful. 
First l am going to talk about my friend's research on this alternative app for Zunal.com which was running so slow and l couldn't open it on my browser. The program l am talking about is BookWidget, Meglina introduced our teacher with it and it works like a charm. With it you can make 40 different types of exercises which can be small exercises or to a full textbook. You can grade students work and hand it back to them with a click, it is absolutely perfect for teachers. 
Klesta and Irda also made a very detailed blog post on how to use the program so after reading their post when l went to work on BookWidget l had no more questions or anything which is funny because earlier today l posted on my Penzu and l wrote how l felt so puzzled about having to work with this program and completing the assignment for this week. 
Another program Irda had mentioned which l liked was Ed Puzzle which is a web based interactive video and formative assessment tool. I liked this program a lot because the videos shown there are all up to the student's needs for example they can pause the video and rewatch or go back to pay more attention where they didn't and also click on hyperlinks for more information. I want to use this one with my classes in the future so much. 

I think this sums up all l wanted to share in this blog for today without being boring and repeating myself since l already talked about some useful apps and programs students can use while working on their projects in my last post. I learned some new things from my friends this week and can't wait to use them in assignments.

    Hi Arjola, first of all thank you for the shoutout, it made me really happy. My favorite part of these blog is learning from each other. Your writing was very put together, and simple while still maintaining its essence and crucial points. Therefore making the information you intend to spread much easier to absorb. Good going!

Technology in EFL classes

 For this week's post l have decided to take a look back at all the work we have been doing so far in these classes. Overall it has been a fun and challenging experience like no other l would say. We have worked alone and in groups, we helped each other and also learned so much from each other, which in my opinion is the best experience.  First of all, we were introduced to this amazing app, Blogger. It is a wonderful way to interact with your teachers and classmates at the same time but also a way to express opinions and get feedback from them. Also we learned how to be very responsible by this class cause we had a frequent homework, posting every week on the blog and also commenting on our friend's posts and express our opinions. Moreover, we learned how to create and share with our students in the future a bunch of exercises by using this tool called Hot Potato, l personally can not wait to use this one in the future. It is so helpful and super easy to use and it gives you ...

Multiple intelligences and 21 Century skills

As young teachers what l believe worries us the most is not having generally a pleasant experience when in a classroom with our students, meaning a lesson not being explained by the teacher and understood by students, class discussions not to be present and overall to have a negative environment and make students feel unsafe. Such a nightmare! In this blog l am going to talk about how to understand our students better and how all of this will help to create that safe environment we all wanted to have when in school.   The theory of multiple intelligences  Psychologist Howard Gardner proposed that people have different types of intelligence that makes them reflect and interact differently from one another with the world. For example myself, l never liked math and no matter what l did l seemed to be getting worse at it, with every try of wanting to get better but on the other hand l was very good at other subjects. Gardner's theory shows us that not only linguistic , logica...
