Hi! Did you hear anything about MALL ? Of course, yes! MALL stands for  Mobile Assisted Language Learning. It  is language learning that is assisted  through  the increased use of mobile technologies such as mobile phones,   MP3   and   MP4   players,   PDAs   and devices such as the   iPhone   or   iPad .  With MALL, students are able to access language learning materials and to communicate with their teachers and other students at any time, anywhere. There are the main principles of MALL: 1)   Portability;  2)   Social interactivity;  3)   Context sensitivity;  4)   Connectivity;  5)   Individuality. Also I'd like to say a few words about  QR ( quick response)  codes .  QR codes have become common in consumer advertising.

Wiki is a type of server software that allows you to work with data on a remote server on the Web.

Hi! Do you know smth about MOOC? MOOC ( M assive Open Online Course )  is an   online course   aimed at unlimited participation and open access via the   web .   In addition,  many MOOCs provide interactive user forums to support community interactions among students, professors, and   teaching assistants . MOOCs are a recent and widely researched development in   distance education  which were first introduced in 2006 and emerged as a popular mode of learning in 2012.

I find course "Python Programming for Evebody" rather interesting.  This course is an introduction to programming in Python .  It assumes no previous programming, math, or other experience.

Hello! Let's talk about survey services. Online surveys are a quick and convenient way of communicating with the audience. With a few clicks, you get the information you need and "include" everyone in the process. Electronic forms of surveys have the main advantage: they allow you to save time and give you the opportunity to access the survey results when you need it. Today we'll try to create some surveys. MyTestXPro  is a system of programs for creating and conducting computer testing, collecting and analyzing the results. Polls in  Twitter  allow you to answer questions asked by other Twitter users. In addition, you can create your own poll. The current results will be displayed immediately. With  Google Forms , you can quickly conduct a survey. Forms can easily be created, edited and filled both on the computer and on mobile devices. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScOrMDBPDazYrwNHAmXyEr0i2YtNxkkgWuF3FQPg86WxhDt4g/viewform?usp=sf_link

Hello, last time we got acquainted with different services for presentations creation and stock. And now I want to say a few words about some services: the first one is Prezi.com (it is web-based presentation software, created in Hungary). The presentation software uses motion, zoom, and spatial relationships to bring your ideas to life and make you a great presenter. https://prezi.com/p/hzoergyerabb/   The second is Slideshare - a Web 2.0–based slide hosting service. Users can upload files privately or publicly in the following file formats: PowerPoint, PDF, Keynote or OpenDocument presentations. Slide decks can then be viewed on the site itself, on hand held devices or embedded on other sites. The third service is Google presentations . It provides a great way to introduce new ideas to the audience. You can create a new presentation and edit with others at the same time. Get stuff done with or without an internet connection. By the way, free from Google. Just have a look! Lin
