There were some really useful feedback "stems" in here for mid-session evaluations or other regular feedback to students. It's nice to not have to reinvent the wheel when you can use a stem and personalize it for students!

108 ways is about 90 too many but maybe there will be a couple of ideas in here about word clouds. They are so cool!

Very interesting post about experiencing classes from the student point of view. I wish we (myself included) were able to do this...even with doing classroom observation I have learned about the importance of breaks, no matter how engaging the lesson is

Interesting article about the changes in expectations of today's learners

I found some really good reminders for myself in here, and some new ways of looking at things.

Looks like a good self study site for ESL students. A little on the advanced side; probably wouldn't work for levels lower than 4.

online reading with self-quizzes. "Beginner" actually seems like low intermediate to me. Not a lot of articles currently but good resource for self student

automatic citation generator plus a bit of checking of elements of writing. Not bad for a free program; Mike's students are using it and find it helpful. Thanks for sharing Mike!

This is great, I didn't know this even existed! Thanks!

grammar powerpoints from Azar. Highly recommended by Jaime and personally I think Azar does a great job of presenting grammar clearly. All free for download!

I survive using Azar!! Love it.

Clear, informative article on making feedback effective

This is worth the time it takes to do it...I found it eye opening how dumb I felt while reading it AND how few of the traditional reading strategies we teach I actually used.

perfect timing!

This was very helpful! As a native speaker, I had to go back to basics to think about 'phrasal verbs' transitive and intransitive, multi-word verbs, etc. all the different terms... I think this could be used for various levels. Good explainer.

Grammar videos from the British Council. Short and explanatory...might be really useful for those of you who are semi-flipping.

Using next Saturday! Thanks, love British Council's resources.
