Tablet computers and on-line interactive exercises in studying and teaching English

mag. Vera Stoilov Spasova, Osnovna šola Naklo

A tablet computer, a wireless Internet connection and on-line interactive exercises have made studying English much more interesting and teaching has become easier because the students are more motivated. In my lessons I use a website for creating interactive on-line exercises. The website is free and you only need to create an account. The mentioned site enables the user to create various types of exercises where you can insert texts, images, audios and videos. You can create different games, quizzes, crosswords, mind maps, cloze tests, number lines, etc. There is also a template with the possibility to enrich an audio or video recording with additional information banners. A tablet computer is also very useful for the application called Kliker (classroom response system) which motivates students to actively engage in studying and the teacher gets immediate feedback about the students’ understanding.
