Grammarly is an online instant grammar checker and more, is a wake-up call: Commas, periods, exclamation points, spelling, context, confused words, voice, mixed metaphors, unclear comparisons. Grammarly points to the word or phrase and suggests an alternative, or that you rethink what you’ve written and sigh. Grammarly forces people to think. They think more about what they write. They perish the thought. As writers, students do want to think about every aspect of what they are writing: spelling, grammar, voice, tone and readability.

Students can use the basic mode and Grammarly checks for contextual spelling, grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and style. Or they can select plagiarism to learn whether they have inadvertently “borrowed” someone’s words and made them theirs. There is a vocabulary enhancement function, which points out vague words that can be changed to another word or phrase to make the sentence stronger or clearer.

Objectives: The students will create an inspirational InfoGraphic that contains a Big Dream that either  expresses their wishes for the future and/of for our society. Their InfoGraphics will be printed as well as published on the corridor walls of the school.

MEISTERLABS Mind mapping and similar brainstorming techniques facilitate creativity and the free flow of ideas. However, in contrast to regular paper mind maps, online mind mapping offers a range of additional possibilities for both students and teachers that make it one of the most practical applications that can be employed in a classroom. Online mind mapping is a means for teachers and students to work collaboratively and brainstorm together in real-time . The software basically offers a two-dimensional canvas which allows teachers and students to explore ideas, concepts and other types of information visually. Mind maps can easily be shared with individuals or whole groups of students, who can then contribute to them by adding their own ideas, images, links to external websites, files, notes or even tasks.

I've worked with TED Talks for two years. They are a quite appealing way of profiting from technology which stir curiosity and avoid boredom  among your students. Why? Because a TED Talk is a showcase for speakers presenting great, well-formed ideas in under 18 minutes . YES. Just 18 minutes. This short time provides the teacher with the possibility of presenting an interesting idea which has been already approved by experts and has been carefully prepared in order to keep the audience alert throughout the whole session. Since it only demands the audience' attention for a short period of time, it decreases the chances of mind wandering or daydreaming during class.  Some of the benefits of using TED Talks include: introducing a new and surprising idea or invention which your students have not heard of and, even if they have, the arguments behind this idea will probably challenge your students' beliefs and perspectives. Remember that an idea isn't just a story o...
