EDPUZZLE, EDUCREATIONS AND VOKI


EDPUZZLE

EDpuzzle is an innovative video site that lets you take any video you like off the web and edit it so that you can use it for educational purposes. You can cut it down into different parts and add audio notes and questions for the students to answer. Moreover, you can create virtual classrooms where teachers can monitor individual student work. 

We can use it in class to practise the listening and check the students' comprehension. 


EDUCREATIONS

Educreations is an interactive whiteboard and screencasting tool that allows teachers to create short instructional videos and share them vith the students. 

We can use it in class to teach a specific topic and also to ask students to show what they know about something or to ask them prepare a presentation to help their classmates learn something new. 



VOKI

Voki is a free service that lets you create a talking avatar to help students share their learning. You can later embed it onto a blog or website.

We can use it in class for different things like getting students to share their learning, getting feedback from students, getting students to add a more human feel to their blog or wiki, expressing views and opinions easier in foreing languages, engaging and hooking students into a subject or topic, practising and listening to presentations, etc.
