Voki

-

 It's crucial to be able to keep students focused in the classses. If teachers look for ways to keep students focused, they could count on Voki to ensure that. Voki is an application in which you can create some characters of speech. You can customize Voki characters however you like, You can make them look like historical figures, cartoons, animals or even, you. 

You can add your own voice or use the voice that Voki provides. There are different accents, men and women voices available and you can customize the voice on the left side of this image. You can type whatever you like and Voki will vocalize them for you!

There are lots for different language options in Voki and you can easily use Voki for foreign language teaching. Students are usually shy while speaking in target language and Voki can encourage them to talk in the lessons. Also, they can hear the correct pronunciations of the words. So, boring lessons will be funnier and language teaching lessons will be more interactional!

Nearpod

Nearpod is a tool that can help teachers make the class interactive. Teachers can create interactive presentations that include contents like videos, pdfs and audios or activities like polls, tests, open ended questions, matching pairs and quizzes. Students can gain access to these presentations through links and codes that teachers share with them. Teachers can share these materials either as live participation or student-paced.     Here's an example of Nearpod presentation. This is a powepoint slide I created a while ago but I added some contents on it with the help of Nearpod. We can add time limit and state a point for each question. Before saving this interactive presentation, we can also preview it.  Teachers can assign homeworks to their students. Students can engage on their own time as well! Teachers can provide a student paced code and they can access the Nearpod lesson at home, or anywhere with internet connection. Teachers can also create some mini games for students. T

Virtual Reality

  Virtual Reality (VR) is the use of computer technology to create a simulated environment.  By simulating as many senses as possible, such as vision, hearing, touch, even smell, the computer is transformed into a gatekeeper to this artificial world. The only limits to near-real VR experiences are the availability of content and cheap computing power. Virtual reality can improve education by providing students with memorable and immersive experiences that would otherwise not be possible, it can all take place within the classroom. VR is accessible to every student and can be easily monitored by teachers. Virtual experiences have the power to engage and inspire students in a unique and powerful way.  Here's a video about how Virtual Reality can help education:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtWStM1oMPU
