CALL & Language Skills

Nowadays, in the era of technologies, there are plenty of resources, where people of different age groups and abilities can learn foreign languages and train their skills. I can't say, however, the exact quantity of them, but it is hard to find a really useful resource.

The site which I liked more from the offered list is "Learn English with Rosetta Stone". 

Why? 

- The navigation is quite easy. 

- There are no too many unknown buttons (~garbage) to click on. 

- You can train listening, speaking and pronunciation just on this one resource without using dozens of sites.

- There is a 3-day free trial, that's why you can try the service and then decide either to buy the full version or abandon.

But there are also some "-":

- The design of the site could be better (especially fonts).

- The tasks are ve-e-e-e-e-ery easy.

The link: https://www.rosettastone.com/

The info will be updated soon...

My personal opinion about groupmates' blogs

Greetings! Today I want to share with you my top-5 students' blogs, which were created during our course this semester. So, here we go! 1.  SET:SINGING ENGLISH TOGETHER This is one of the most beautiful blogs created by Varya Gorbacheva. A pleasant color-scheme, stylish interface - all this the girl tried to do, and it turned out very cool. 2.  Phonetics - Take it easy! A blog created by my groupmate Maria Slesareva looks pretty nice. It has a thematic interface (background), a nice palette of colors and nothing trashy in the text - you should visit this site. 3.  I WANT TO SPEAK It is very positive-oriented and friendly blog. In each post the author asks just one question, which makes you smile, because we see that a person isn't indifferent to the users who visit his site. "How are you?" 4.  LaLaLanguage Nice interface, nothing superfluous, everything is very carefully and efficiently done. 5.  SpeakEverywhere A blog created by Polina Samoilovich has a...

Bookmarks

Frankly speaking, I've never being in need of usage third-party services to save bookmarks. Every time I found a useful resource, I added it to my browser bookmarks (in my case, it's Google Chrome), but then I didn't need this site, or I visited it, but rarely. After reviewing the list of suggested services for saving bookmarks online, I haven't chose anything: everything is too complicated and I need to sign up there. For me the most comfortable and free resource is Google Bookmarks .  Google Bookmarks   is a free   online   bookmarking   service available to   Google Account   holders. It is completely separate from browser-based bookmarking and should not be confused with the Bookmarks function on any popular browser,   Google Chrome   included. Google Bookmarks was launched on October 10, 2005.   It is a   cloud-based service   that allows users to bookmark   webpages   and add   labels   or notes. ...

WIKI

Wiki is a web technology used for collaborative publishing on the web. Wiki is a type of server software that allows you to work with data on a remote server on the Web. Users interact with the software through a web interface that lets them read, edit and publish content. At the user's level, a wiki is a website with an “Edit” button. Clicking the “Edit” button allows you to edit the current page and save it for other Internet users to see. Like any other website, it is accessed through a website address, also known as URL which can be bookmarked and shared. It can also be accessed from any device with an Internet connection. Technically, a wiki site is not different from any other sites, with one exception — you and your students can create and edit it together. Wiki is used for collaborative publishing. A group of co-authors can freely add and change the content of the wiki website: rewrite texts, add new texts and images, add and link pages and more. To do so, the group needs a...
