HOT POTATOES

Image
Hot Potatoes is shareware from Half-Baked Software which is based at the University of Victoria in Canada. It is a program that allows you to make six different types of self-test exercise. These exercises can also quite easily be imported into an LMS like Moodle to be used for assessment of learning content.  Hot Potatoes was originally meant to create language exercises, and some HotPot exercises (like jumbled sentences) have little use otherwise. However, most exercises can be used for any subject.  Hot Potatoes is shareware. That means you can freely download the program from the Internet (at https://hotpot.uvic.ca/ ).  General description of the program Exercises are made in two steps.  First, you create the so-called "data file" which has a Hot Potato XML extension (like .jcw or .jcl). This file is useless without the Hot Potatoes program but is used to edit the exercises later. The exercises are exported to web-based exercises (which have th...

The Beginning of His Signs!

Water? No it's Wine! A Miracle - Storynory John 2 : 1-11 Based on Holy Bible, we know that Jesus Christ in Cana of Galilee did the beginning of his signs, and he made his glory manifest, and his disciples put their faith in him. This is the story of the most fun-loving miracle of all time - turning water into wine. I always like the story so much. In short, the story told about Jesus, Mary (His mom), and His disciples came in to a wedding in Cana of Galilee. In the middle of party, suddenly someone said "There is no more wine." Mary, the mother of Jesus was there and turned to her son and said "They have no wine." But Jesus said to her "What have I to do with you, woman? My hour has not yet come." Mary said to those ministering "Whatever he tells you, do." There were six stone water jars sitting there as required by the purification. Jesus said to them "Fill the water jars with the water." And they filled them to the brim...

What is Quizlet? According to the Quizlet website, the program is explained: “Quizlet is a mobile and web-based study application used by 1-in-2 high school students and 1-in-3 college students in United States and is a free website providing learning tools for students, including flashcards, study, and game modes.” Quizlet was created by Andrew Sutherland in October 2005 and released to the public in January 2007. As of August 2017, Quizlet has over 140 million user-generated flashcard sets and more than 20 million active learners. Teachers can search premade learning sets by subject or create their own. They can set up classes and monitor student progress through assigned learning sets. (Source:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quizlet ) This week in my Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) class, we have done to learn how to make a Quizlet. Miss Priska asked us in this class to try this website. In the first time, we did not really understand and did not know how...

Lesson Stream

Image
http://lessonstream.org/lessons/ This website is very interesting for me because it is visual lesson plans for teachers. This website was created by Jamie Keddie. I like this website because it is very flexible. Why? Because Jamie Keddie allows teachers to adapt the lesson plans to meet their needs and teachers have permission to remix, mash and share the content on his website for non-commercial purposes. Overall, I think that Lesson Stream is a terrific place to start when planning classes on a new topic or for a new class ( http://busyteacher.org/15966-lesson-stream-org-busy-teacher-detailed-review.html ).

Recap for Encouraging Reflection on Learning

Image
In the first time, I had no idea about what “Recap for enouraging reflection on learning” stands for because I think the author has made a mistake. The correct title should be “Recap for encouraging reflection on learning”. My lecturer gave me choice of English Language Teaching blogs and she wanted me to choose one of the blogs. Then, I just randomly clicked one of them and finally read and stopped with this one. When I first read the blog, I was interested with the first sentence. The sentence says “One of the true keys to learning and developing any ability is the willingness and capacity to reflect on what we have learned”. I justify the sentence above. Willingness and capacity are the most two important things on learning something. On this blog, I have learned something new to help students reflect what they have learned with the app. This app, similar to Schoology, uses some features for teaching such as video to learn. I think this app is really useful to try as one ...
