Quizizz

 QUIZIZZ

Quizizz is a wonderful web page to use as a teacher. It gives you the opportunity to create different kind of online activities: multiple-choice activities, fill-in the gap, etc. But, what it is a pity is that the basic option (not the premium one) only gives you the chance to upload images that can go with the text, but not audios and neither videos. 

I have created a quiz about fruits, which I think is a ver common topic to wok with childhood education students. 



Downloadhelper

DOWNLOADHELPER

 This web page is very similar to Y2mate, and is called downloadhelper. They are very similar because it helps you to download videos in a safe way. And, again, this could be very convinient because even though you do not have internet in class for any reason and that day the class was centered in the video that you hace search, you are prepared to carry on with your class plan.




Y2mate

 Y2MATE

Today we have seen this tool called Y2mate. Is a tool which is used to download safely videos from YouTube. I think is a functional page because in case one day in class you do not have Internet for any kind of reason, you could always put the video and keep going with your plan in your class for that day.




Openshot

 OPENSHOT

Openshot is a page used to edit videos. It is free to downloaded it so, everyone with a computer can do it. This page was created with the intention to be easy to use and to not pay for anything, which is great, because as I have seen during the course, many pages force you to pay if you want some extra items or extra materials.

Storyboard

 STORYBOARD

Today in class, some of my classmates presented several tools to create  interactive stories, and they talked about Storyjumper, storyboard, etc. So, because on a previous post I have created an interactive story using the web page Storyjumper, now I have created one using the tool called Storyboard. I have done it in a simple way, to get familiar with the web page. My story is about Greece Mythology, and I present three charismatic characters of Greece Mythology: Medusa, Daphne and the Bull of Creta.

StoryJumper

 STORYJUMPER

Today in class we have took a look to another web page called Storyjumper. After looking through it carefully, I believe is a wonderful tool, where you can create your own story, and it could be about anything you like: animals, family, adventures, etc. Is all left to your imagination. It is marvelous because you can insert videos, your own voice, sound effects, music, etc.

Because it was my first time using this tool, I have created a simple story called Where is Tom?, where a girl is presenting his dog, saying that he likes to hide and she needs help in order to find him. At the same time, he is presenting different animals. Also, the structure of the questions is always the same, so for childhood education students is easier to remember what the sentence means and what they need to answer.  Finally, is a simple story and it is written in capital letters because is thought to be use it with childhood education children, so they are able to read it and the follow the story easily.

Genially

 GENIALLY

I wanted to explore a little bit more about Genially, and I have created another activity. Again, is related to the animals, but this time the center point is how animals sound. 



Final Reflection
