I am happy to share with my readers an episode of “Tech Talks with the Pod4Cast”, where we talked at length about different Ed Tech tools for supporting English Language Learners in the classroom. Each of the four group members (myself, Tegan, Annette, and Silver) came up with the two Language Learning Technology Tools (LLTTs) to present and critique.
For my section of the podcast, I talked about Word Reference and Free Rice. Word Reference is an online dictionary and forum website for language learning, while Free Rice is a gamified way of learning English vocabulary. In our podcast, I presented my research on these tools. I provided there pros and cons, how they can be used in the classroom, and user feedback (but you’ll have to listen to our podcast to find out more!)
I have attached a Soundcloud link of our podcast HERE. I have never used Soundcloud before, so it was another opportunity to try out some new technology! (Hopefully it works…)
Enjoy, and look out for more Pod4cast content in the near future!
YIT,
Markus
Howdy Mark,
I love your groups podcast name! Really made me chuckle, so clever! I am saddened that this will be the last comment I make on your blogs, it’s been a good ride.
Hope to catch up in the near future,
Yours truly,
A.P.H.
