My application of PodCast

Podcast can be seen as the useful tool for learning English
Among Postcast page i know, ESL Pod is my favorite one.
This page includes a lot of life situations with listening text and audio file which help students practice listening in particular situations. Students also learn how to communicate through conversations in it and a variety of idioms used can be rich resource of vocabulary for students to speak and use in their own cases.
Flexibly I will ask my students in different classes and in different levels to listen at home, get some vocabulary, create their own contexts using the words or phrases they have learnt and write a short summary
I hope that it will work well
This link can let you go to the interesting page. Thank you to come and enjoy

My first comic in Edmodo

Edmodo is one tool I often use in my teaching context but this is the first time i know about PiXton comic Maker which can help me to encourage my students to be more creative and improve their own communicative skills. This tool also helps them apply any grammar items into their life with real situations. My example below is one which students use MODAL VERB + V (infinitive) in one particular situation I hope that you can enjoy it

LAW ON COPYRIGHT IN VIETNAM

In general, according to Constitution of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam of 1992, the basic law on copyright was enacted initially in 2001. However, three main Intellectual Property were enforced from 2005 to 2009. 

In fact, recently the IP and copyright laws have been much more attention paid in our country in order solve the increasing number of problems in different fields of society related to IP and copyright argumentation and conflicts. Most of the IP and copyright rules in Vietnam are quite similar to those in U.S even though they need to be more specific, concrete, and clearer. Copying others' works without authors' permission must be considered illegal. 
Here is a link which let you know more about these rules in our country

For teachers in our education systems, they required far clearer rules on their rights and responsibilities in creating their own teaching materials and using others'. Some recommendations have been given and these rules in educational environment in our country need to be seen suitably depending on the sate of economy, society and international orientation. 
For reference, this link can be a good choice
