Teach the world. Use mysimpleshow in the classroom with your students or contribute to open educational resources. Introduce, summarize, and explain topics worth sharing.

I'm going to try this. Usually, for online learning I will make my own presentation and then do a screen recording on the Mac which records your voice at the same time. A more fun, interactive presentation may help the students pay closer attention.

Thanks for sharing. I've always thought that kind of video is very visually appealing for students. I'll definitely explore MySimpleShow! It could be used to explain difficult topics in a simple way.

As a teacher of 5-6 year old ESL learners in a bilingual school, I find this website really useful for activities, songs, games etc for teaching English in a fun way. It is very interractive and child friendsly. Children can explore activities alone or it can be used as part of a teaching session. They can also leave their own comments about activities they liked. I think someone has already mentioned it below but I love it so much I had to post again so everyone can see. Highly recommended for any teachers of young learners, whether these kids are second language learners or not.

good site

As a fan and enthusiastic user of IT in classes, I have just started a course: ICT in Primary Education: Transforming children's learning across the curriculum. It is a free course at www.coursera.org I will start recording some tools available online. Take a look at them and free your imagination to use them in your lessons.

Hello! I am glad to be here. I just have known this free course so I immediately enrolled. I am happy that I will be learning a lot especially in dealing with the 21st century learners. I need to enhance my skills in learning when and how to use and integrate ICT in the teaching-learning process!
