Ask Auntie Web: Voki
http://askauntieweb.blogspot.com/2010/11/voki.html
A blog reflecting on how to use free online technology in teaching English as a foreign language. Tuesday, 16 November 2010. This is a Voki that I typed text into, and which turned my text to (robotic) speech. Create your own at http:/ www.voki.com/. And see what it does with the text you type in. Then, below, I've made a second one using a recording of my own voice. You can either record directly into Voki, or create an mp3 using Audacity or (as I did) GarageBand on a Mac. Labels: text to voice.

Step 2: Create a character and make it look a little like yourself. Step 3: Create a comic strip with yourself and some of other characters featured in the "library".

Ask Auntie Web: Take a snapshot of your screen
http://askauntieweb.blogspot.com/2010/07/take-snapshot-of-your-screen.html
A blog reflecting on how to use free online technology in teaching English as a foreign language. Friday, 16 July 2010. Take a snapshot of your screen. Creating online snapshots is getting more important as we work online and want to save images of the processes to document or explain things. So: What do you use to make screenshots? With Microsoft Windows, you press the Print Screen button. I use Mac, and my favorite tool is the incredibly versatile Skitch. I often use it to take snapshots of Wordle.

A blog reflecting on how to use free online technology in teaching English as a foreign language. Monday, 12 March 2012. Etherpad Lite is an updated version of Etherpad, an application for collaborative online editing.

The document can be exported / downloaded in various formats. What a great tool! I've introduced it to ELTABB.

A blog reflecting on how to use free online technology in teaching English as a foreign language. Friday, 16 July 2010. What's your favorite learning environment?
