Your Language Lab

In order to make the most of your lesson and organize technology enhanced learning in your classroom, it's best to use various technology tools that are available. One of such tools and many people believe the best is ANVILL. Indeed it's a tool which should be rated five stars ( in 1-5 stars scale ) for its functionality. Not only is it easy to use but also it's easy to manage and prepare anything you want there. The best thing is that you can easily import any authentic material from the web and simply incorporate it in any kind of a lesson.


ANVILL's forums can be used by teachers and learners as an asynchronous discussion tool on the Internet. They play their function particularly well because everyone can start a new thread and then it allows for infinite media based responses by students or teachers. I especially love the fact that students can use the TCast tool to give audio or video-based responses to a discussion topic.


Finally one of the best things in this tool is that the students can use it both in the classroom lab, where their work can be guided and monitored by the teacher or at home where they can be more independent.

  3. HI,

    what I mean "text to speech and speech to text" if students gives his/her response in written form technology i.e.ANVILL should convert it to audio file for listening.

    If its a video or audio response ANVILL should convert it to written/text form!!!

    Thank for visiting and commenting on my BLOG.
