In Class Assignment > HOT POTATOES

"It's so HOT"...Hot potatoes is very useful and compatible application for teachers, especially in the era of globalization, students easily getting bored with the old and traditional teaching and learning style (chalk n blackboard). So,by having this HOT software, teachers are able to provide interesting, challenging and meaningful exercises for students, since they are now communicate mostly with ICT or technology. More than that, students will be excited to accomplish their homeworks compared to using the exercise books.

I found that, by using the Hot Potatoes software, it helps me to generate creative tasks for students and i feel excited to create the exercises. I can create lots of fun exercises, but very effective for students' understanding, especially for them to learn English language as their second language. It is also save teachers' time to mark the exercises or students can get immediate feedback. It also promotes self-centered learning, which learning session can be experienced outside the class and without the teachers assistance. Moreover,this software is easy to handle and i think all teachers are able to cooperate well with this software, so effective and interesting learning can be created.

Great appreciation to the people who created the Hot Potatoes..i will definitely use this software for my teaching in the future..
