We also found such an interesting platform, as UKRAINIAN ENGLISH
LANGUAGETEACHER LEARNING PLATFORM, which was created to
help implement the long-awaited system of foreign language teaching adapted
to the peculiarities of child’s perception. The platform contains materials
aligned to educational standards that were specifically selected by experts of 3
education organisations for teachers in primary and mid-secondary school
segments.

We want to present you some tools for teachers,which can help to accomplish
teaching tasks that would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to do without
technology.
For example, there are:
● tools that help you make any activity or piece of content into an
interactive learning experience,
● tools that turn boring quizzes into engrossing games,
● tools that help you make faster, more effective video tutorials with the
help of artificial intelligence,
 ● as well as tools that both you and your students can use to explore your
creativity when using technology.

Canva Education
Canva Education is top pick for both teacher and student creativity, though it’s
also highly functional for creating interactive activities as well.

Educators can get a Canva Education account for free, and once you do, you’ll
have access to loads of education-specific creativity tools and templates you can
use to create lessons, assign interactive worksheets, collaborative whiteboards,
as well as graphic design and video templates students can use for their own
creativity projects.

(11 слайд)
As a teacher, you can also design materials for your own classroom. For
example, in the classroom decor kits you’ll find editable templates that you can
easily add your Bitmoji to in order to create a Bitmoji classroom scene.

There are also editable whiteboard templates that you can assign directly to
individual students, groups of students, or to your whole class. Once students
complete an assignment, they can submit it to you for review, and then you can
leave them feedback on their work.

Of course Canva Education also features editable templates that students can
use for creativity projects, such as videos and graphic design.

And if you’re looking to try other presentation tools to deliver lessons, Canva
even has editable slide presentations that you can customize and present to
students.

Actively Learn
Actively Learn is a powerful EdTech platform that allows teachers to easily
make web pages, articles, and videos into interactive learning experiences.
The free version of Actively Learn gives you access to a large archive of articles
which already include editable interactive questions that students answer as they
are reading. As students read, they are required to answer the questions in order
to move forward in the article.

(13 слайд)
Interactive Text Features in Actively Learn
The entire text is interactive as well, so students can click on any word and
choose to have that word read aloud to them, get the definition of that word, or
to translate that word into another language

As a teacher, you can use or edit the pre-made interactive questions that come
along with each article.

You can also click on any part of the text to add your own custom interactive
questions to the article.

With the free version of Actively Learn, you’ll also be able to upload 3 pieces
of your own content each month and make those interactive. For example, you
can import YouTube videos and add interactive questions to those videos for
students to answer as they proceed through the video.

Wakelet
Wakelet is a free digital bulletin board tool with a wide range of uses, from
teacher curated collections of mixed media content for lesson plans or
professional development to student digital portfolios or collaborative research
projects.

Let’s say you wanted to build a lesson plan in Wakelet. You could start by
adding a collection, and then giving it a name like “Biodiversity” and then
adding a cover image and assignment description.

Within a single Wakelet collection, you can add different media types. For
example, you can do things like directly embed a Flipgrid Short explaining what
a lesson is about and how to complete the activities.
(15 слайд)
Then, you can copy and paste the link to a website about your topic or to an
interactive video in a program like Edpuzzle.

You can also upload documents from your Google Drive such as a graphic
organizer for students to complete, and then add the direct link to a Flipgrid
assignment where students would record a video of themselves explaining what
they learned.

Students can also work together to build collections of curated mixed-media

resources for a research project and then share that back with the rest of the
class.

Many people also choose to make their Wakelet collections public, so you can
also use the search tool to hunt around and see what collections others have
already put together about a topic you are teaching.
