Overall, after a short time (six months) of using Kahoot in the Warm-up, Review or Consolidation tutorials, I found that designing a professional, fast and professional question-and-answering package can save a lot of time since this application can support upload pictures and audio to compose questions, and I not have to work too much as I observe students' results, I not have to wait to see whether all the students have finished answering the questions or not which is usually done in Power point because all players themselves have chosen the question and the system automatically reports the results without having to wait out the time as I have installed for each question before Using Kahoot helps students participate in the game at the same time as an unlimited number of participants Teachers can organize mini game show in the school's extra-curricular sessions At the same time, the teacher can encourage more students to improve the position on the chart Teaching vocabulary - Quizlet Quizlet is a website that helps users create and use online flashcards to learn vocabulary, including audio and video Learning vocabulary is less boring and easier for the students to remember One of the advantages of the Quizlet is that it can be used on smart devices such as smart phones, tablets, Quizlet will help the learners save time, flexible and more active in learning and reviewing new words TEACHER: TRINH THI LAM NGUYEN CHICH SECONDARY SCHOOL SangKienKinhNghiem.net 14 SOME INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS IN TEACHING ENGLISH FOR THE STUDENTS IN GRADE AT NGUYEN CHICH SECONDARY SCHOOL After we have created the sets, we have different learning styles, changing this method also increases the interest in learning 1.Flashcards: This section helps the students memorize vocabulary on two sides of the flashcard, flips back and forth to change between English and Vietnamese interpretation as well as pronunciation Just one click or the next key on the keyboard is already read 2.Learn: The Quizlet requires the students to type the English word that corresponds to the predefined Vietnamese part and automatically correct the mistakes and spellings when the learners misspell each word 3.Speller: "just type what you hear" -> simply hear the words, then the learners rewrite the word only, it is very useful for listening skill 4.Test: Quizlet will create a random test of the vocabulary that we created based on four basic forms: written, matching, multiple choice and True / False 5.Scatter: This is a matching game that allows the learners to "drag and drop" words and their corresponding meanings The feeling of breaking the record of oneself or other friends in the group is quite interesting, learning to play - playing that kind of headache does not hurt at all :) 6.Race: In this final form, the question will run from left to right, and the leaners need to quickly type the corresponding word into the box The speed will be increased to correspond to the level Before using Quizlet, I usually prepare images for presentation on Powerpoint, so it used to take me too much time to prepare including teaching tools Nowadays, I have a software application to create and use Quizlet card sets to teach vocabulary at 30 seconds per word including: vocabulary, meaning, images and pronunciation Ex: To teach the vocabulary of the sport such as Karate, Chess, Skiing, Swimming in Lesson / Unit 8/ English 7/ episode I just need two minutes to enter the right-column from English, find TEACHER: TRINH THI LAM NGUYEN CHICH SECONDARY SCHOOL SangKienKinhNghiem.net 15 SOME INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS IN TEACHING ENGLISH FOR THE STUDENTS IN GRADE AT NGUYEN CHICH SECONDARY SCHOOL and select the consistent image to the right Click the Create button that has created the vocabulary cards includes illustrations and pronunciations for words While teaching, teachers can teach monolingual or bilingual, it depends on the choice of English or Vietnamese After teaching vocabulary, I give students the path to the vocabulary cards to participate in mini-test or from the corresponding definition in order to check the memory and understand the vocabulary of students Scatter card created by the free software on device The software is designed time, help teachers flexible among participating students In addition, students participate in the exam with multiple choice exercises forms (M / C), TF, circle, short answer test card online Students listen to pronunciation and fill in the blanks of card speller If wrong, TEACHER: TRINH THI LAM NGUYEN CHICH SECONDARY SCHOOL SangKienKinhNghiem.net 16 SOME INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS IN TEACHING ENGLISH FOR THE STUDENTS IN GRADE AT NGUYEN CHICH SECONDARY SCHOOL the software will display hints If correct, it would be plus points Use Quizlet help me save time, costs, makes teaching vocabulary becomes a professional, fast and attract students Students hear the correct pronunciation from native speaker's voice Helping students to practice vocabulary at home 2.4 The effectiveness of the initiative experience for educational activities, with myself, colleagues and the school These softwares have very good application properties, bring good benefits to both teachers and students If teachers use the ICT software proficiently, this will help make the lessons more and more enjoyable You can apply for the exam and outdoor activities This solution helps both teachers and learners make use of the benefits of technology in the educational environment These softwares help the students to save time Stimulate the ability of students to learn English better Increase retention and interaction with the tools to learn english Listening, speaking, writing of students is enhanced Average and weak students can improve their English TEACHER: TRINH THI LAM NGUYEN CHICH SECONDARY SCHOOL SangKienKinhNghiem.net 17 SOME INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS IN TEACHING ENGLISH FOR THE STUDENTS IN GRADE AT NGUYEN CHICH SECONDARY SCHOOL CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS 3.1 Conclusion After the application of information technology in my teaching lessons The students in grade at Nguyen Chich seconday school have become more interested in English lessons and they have become more active in their learning They are eager to participate in the game "school -
