Learning with Computers

Tammy Worcester explains how this can be used here: http://www.tammyworcester.com/TipOfWeek/TammyWTechTipOfWeek/Entries/2009/8/25_Tip_72_-_Block_Posters.html Basically, it allows you to easily resize any picture in your PC to turn it into a class poster, and print it at home using ordinary sheets. 8-)

Back in November 2008 I published Part 1 of a series of articles intended to explore the use of WebCams in education. I have now finally got round to writing Part 2 which is a collection of 20 activities EFL ESL teachers can do with their students.

There are times when you know what you want to say, but you just don't know the right word in English. This can be very frustrating, but it is good to practice explaining the words you want so that you can get the word you want. This activity will look at a website called OneLook Reverse Dictionary which can help you with this. You can also practice using the site by doing an online crossword puzzle.

iLearn Technology is the premiere educational blog teaching educators about integrating technology and computer curriculum into the classroom. "Zoho Challenge allows teachers to easily conduct tests online in 4 simple steps. Zoho Challenge allows for multiple choice questions and descriptive questions. Results are displayed immediately for you and your students (although this setting can be altered to fit your needs.) Time limits can be specified, difficulty levels calculated automatically, and online access to students details." Sounds great, doesn't it?
