Survey services

-

Hello, guys!
All the time we have examined recourses which help both students and teachers in their learning process. But there is one more aspect of teacher`s work. That is students` work control. Of course, students don`t like all these numerous tests, but they are, undoubtedly, an essential part of the learning process. 
Nowadays the Internet offers teachers a lot of opportunities for tests making. In this post I will get you acquainted with several survey services. 
Let`s start with MyTextX. It is a very useful and convenient resource which allows users to create tests with different types of tasks (e.x., one answer, several answers, text entry etc.). Everything is very well with this service except from it`s design. Unfortunately, it is rather plain. But if it doesn`t matter, MyTextX will become a good assistant for a busy teacher.



Next are polls in Twitter. Honestly speaking, I haven`t known yet that this resource functions not only as a social network but also as a survey service. And it was a great discovery for me as I am sure students will feel more calm if you offer them a test in Twitter as it is a very familiar environment for them. Consequently, students will be more mitivated to get involved in the test.

Then let`s turn our attention to the Google Forms . As for me, it is a perfect tool for test making: it is colourful, simple and logically organised. Moreover, it contains already prepared patterns. The test can be easily shared throgh the link. This service is really worth using!

Last but not the least, is Socrative. It is also a very convenient tool for test making. As I have tried it a lot of times at a student, I can definitely recommend it! The procedure of test creation here is very simple - you just need to create the so-called "cabinet" and then add your questions. Besides, Socrative also offers various types of tasks, so your students will never be bored.

Google services in education

Hello, dear students! I think, it is high time to discuss google services for educational purposes. I am sure, everybody has already worked with some of them, but I hope you will find something new from this post. Let`s start with Google Docs and Google Sheets. They are an ideal tool for group work on text and mistakes correction.  These services allow users to follow any changes added to the collective document, make notes and use chat.  Next is Google Slides . Two posts ago I examined this service in my review on resources for presention creation. So I won`t discuss it in detail here. The only thing I say is that this service is really worth using! And if you`d like to see this tool in practice, come to my previous posts where I added a link to my own presentation created in Google Slides. Now let`s head for the Google Forms . With the help of this service teachers can easily create various questionnaires.It is a perfect tool to use for homework and

Hello, guys! Today we continue to observe numerous opportunities of the Internet and technologies for education and language learning in particular. It seems that the Intenet will never stop surprising me! In this post I`d like to get you acquainted with MOOC which is  a   massive open online course. First of all, let`s refer to the dictionary to find out the definition of this new term.  A  massive open online course  is an  online course  aimed at unlimited participation and open access via the  web .  MOOCs are a recent and widely researched development in  distance education  which were first introduced in 2006 and emerged as a popular mode of learning in 2012. Such a course has the following characteristics: it is open, participatory, distributed and provides life-long network learning. As it called a course it provides a systematic learning process (it has the beginning and the end) but not a rambling studing. In addtion to this, I have learned about f ive free MO

Bookmarks

Hello everybody! Every day we deal with a lot of information in the Web, but many people just use a certain amount of resources much more often than others. So in order not to log in such websites every time there was created a special service called bookmarks .  But I am sure everyone has already worked with it. As in previous posts I have examined several resorces that allow users to create quick and useful bookmarks. All of them turned out to be rather simple, convenient, and, what is important, free. So I will just show you my personal bookmarks created in one of such a resource ( https://webstartpage.ru/ ). This resource attracted me by its logical structure and convenience. However, its design is rather plain, but, honestly speaking, it doesn`t matter, so if you`d like something more colourful choose some other resource. Good luck!
