About this presentation:
In this presentation Paul will introduce and demonstrate Apps 4 EFL , a website for teachers and learners of English as a Foreign Language, designed to work both on mobile devices and desktop PCs. Apps 4 EFL features a variety of games and activities for English language learners in the form of “web-apps” – apps that run in the browser.
Additionally, it includes management tools for teachers whereby students’ progress in each of the individual apps can be monitored, recorded, and used as an element of assessment in any English course.
Featured apps include the likes of WikiCloze, which allows students to read and study up to 5,000,000 Simple English and Native English Wikipedia by completing dynamically generated cloze tests, listening gap-fills, listening and reading comprehension quizzes, and vocabulary matching activities.
The newest addition to the web-app line up, Word Wiz, allows students to create, share, and study sets of English vocabulary. Students can learn the meanings, spellings, and pronunciations of thousands of essential English words, including those appearing in word lists such as the NGSL (New General Service List) and AWL (Academic Word List)
For the most interactive experience, please bring your own digital device to the meeting.
