If you thought learning was confined to the classroom, think again. We love what we do in English Language Teaching (ELT) at Pearson, because we get to work in lots of different types of classrooms around the world, from Asia to Latin America, from everyday state schools to Private Language Schools (PLS). Everyday we look at ways of combining content, assessment, technology and services to help all teachers and students across the world teach, learn and practise their English skills. Take a look at our Catalogue, Classroom Resources, ELTCommunity and Professional Development area - all designed to support teachers and help them enjoy their work. We believe in all kinds of learning, delivered at any time, in any place through materials of the highest quality, enabling you to achieve your English learning and teaching goals.

EdPuzzle is a neat tool that I recently learned about from David Kapuler. EdPuzzle allows you to add your voice and questions to educational videos. On EdPuzzle you can search for educational videos from Khan Academy and Learn Zillion. Once you've found a video you can insert your own voice comments. You can also create a series of questions to go along with your chosen video. Questions are inserted along a timeline that matches the video. That means that your students don't have to wait until the end of a video in order to answer the questions. In that regard the EdPuzzle is similar to Blubbr.tv.
