Quizlet and Hot Potatoes


During the course, I have learnt about some really interesting and helpful web pages. Quizlet is one of them. Actually, I can't imagine my future work without it. Quizlet is really fun and easy to use website. It is especially useful for learning vocabulary, teachers can prepare visual tasks which help students to memorize new words quicker. I have already created some Quizlets for German classes that I have with primary school students and this time I created an activity on tools. As I am doing my internship in a vocational-technical school I thought this might be useful.

Another tool that we had to use was Hot Potatoes. On this programme, 5 different types of tasks can be created: JCloze,  JQuiz, JMatch, JMix and JCross. However, I haven't found it so appealing and useful. Before working with it, you have to download it on your computer. In my opinion, the design is a little bit outdated and it takes quite a lot of time to figure it out how it works. I would use Hot Potatoes only if I didn't have any other choice. Anyway, here are some Hot Potatoes tasks that I have created (JCloze and JCross).
