In teaching reading, what media that you usually use in your classroom?

A BOOK? Only a book? Are you sure?

How do your students respond your teaching? I am sure they will feel bored.

If only you know that teaching reading can be conducted with comic. Yap! We can use comic as our media to teaching reading. In comic, there are picture and the text. If students only read a text, they will feel bored. But if the text is accompanied by picture, they will get interest to your teaching.

Nowadays, we can make our own comic. There are many kinds of tool in the internet that you can use to make a comic. Such as:

1. Toondoo

2. Chogger

3. Pixton

I ever made a comic with my friends for teaching Descriptive text. Have a look at https://www.pixton.com/comic-strip/c5m3s45s

Welcome back!

Have you ever presented any material? Anything. Have you?

Well, I am sure you must have done present something whether it in formal or informal ways. What kind of tools that you use when you presenting something? Microsoft power point?

Many of us use that software to present something. But, have ever heard or even seen someone presenting their material using timeline?

When you presenting a history it is better for you to use timeline instead of power point.

There are many tools that can be used to make timeline. Such as:

1. http://www.tiki-toki.com/
2. http://www.timetoast.com/
3. http://timeglider.com/
4. http://www.dipity.com/

Just like me. I ever made a summary about the development of CALL using tikitoki. Have a look at http://www.tiki-toki.com/timeline/entry/626738/History-of-CALL/ and click the white box to find out more about the information.
