Teachers need help teaching


Flash Cards Creation - http://www.studyblue.com/online-flashcards                                                                                                          


Sometimes as a student you find it better to remind yourself over and over again until you get it. With flash cards you are able to be your own teacher. This website helps the kids use something they can not live without, and that’s their phone. The study blue site allows you to create the flash cards by phone. Create the definition and take a picture of what your talking about and use you voice to record what your seeing. The app is available for android and iphone. This falls under the category of drill and practice. I would use this form of software to help with a certain definition portion of the subject we are doing during that time. This will fall under the drill and practice.

Jeopardy Game Maker- http://www.superteachertools.com/jeopardy/editgame.php


This software can help create question and answers in the form of the game show Jeopardy. It has the value for each question and separates the questions in set category. This software helps you to create a unique way of using groups during bigger classes to compete against each other. I would use it for a down day or even in the form a test. This would fall under the instructional software.

Think Analogy Puzzles-  http://www.criticalthinking.com/thinkanalogy-puzzles-b1-software.html

This software can help kids understand analogies. It can help them to analysis words and help develop a stronger understanding of vocabulary words. Being able to allow kids to work together helps them to develop relationships with each other while helping his/her classmate. It would fit what I am doing because I plan on going into the Language Arts. This will fall under the problem solving software.

Certificate Maker-  http://www.certificatemaker.com/

This software will would fall under the form of a material generator. This would be helpful when encouraging a student to continue to do better and let them see their progress. In my case as a coach it would help create certificates for my ball players for their participation.


This software would fall under the graphic tools. This site allows you to search and find various of editable picture and signs to create various of art work. I would use this in power points, or to set up a part of speech that would be used in a public speaking course.
