I teach students between 6- 13 years. It is my first experience, and I think it is great opportunity for me to learn from this event. I am always in search of innovations and for me creative use of tablets is great chance for learning language effectively and thoroughly as it offers a great variety of resources for langauge learning.

It is famous for its oil which makes it popular among developed countries.

The capital is Baku, very hospitable city for all tourists.It is very beautiful and amazing place with its sightseeings and everliving history.

I am happy to say that The First European Games is held in Baku. So all are invited to witness this great event.

But actually I'll categorize my challenges as follows:

a - Funding problem - I don't think every family can afford having tablets.

b - Internet connectivity

c - It is difficult to combine and share the material across the entire school or education authority.

d - Cyber safety - which is the essential point for students "going out" into "the world"

Actually content creation is much more interesting for students as they "go"outside the classroom for research. I have worked with my students on the project "Health Issues among teenagers in european countries" and students have created story on PIXTON. They have planned how create their own story about health problems. Really was interesting and as it was their production motivating for learning . Authentic learning emphasizes thinking, planning and creation which are 21st century learners characterstic features.

Here is an example for safe driving habits produced by my students

Video making is always interesting task for my students. They use MAGISTO for production. Amazing app for collection of both videos and images. "PHOTOPEACH" is also easy to use for making collage images . Among the most favourite tools for sharing ideas my students always choose "LINOIT". It serves as the board for producing ideas commonly. "POSTERONWALL" serves as collaborative app for sharing the final product. One of the most used app is "KINDLE" which provides with millions of books to download.Reading includes into the main content lines of language learning. it really hepls much.

Here is some of them.Have a look and please comment. Feedbacks are essential for me.

• But what I wanted to know and I mainly asked not yet answered was the question " how tablets might help students to assimilate their writing skills?

The Guardian: Tablets in schools: coding, creativity and the importance of teachers

Creating Content with your Tablet (2014) (not free)

Dream : pupils can brainstorm and think free

Explore : collection data

Map : structure ideas and concepts

Make : develop content, TIME to activate

Ask : FEEDBACK

Re-make : replan upon feedbacks

Show : publishing and presentation

One more thing : While grouping students always complain about the working of other members and not setting the work in time.

I would like my peers to have their opinions about best grouping criterias.

School to school cooperation has been used in our school since 2013 as We are freshman in eTwinning projects. But we have worked hard during these years and had alot many cooperative and collaborative meeting projects. Aand most of them have won Quality Label.

Students are very keen on talking with peers and ask as many questions as they can , because such cooperation motivates them .

During the sessions we have used netbooks and it helped really. But upcoming year we are going to have tablet in most classes and I think it will increase students interest to school to school projects more effectively.

Flipped classroom concept has not fully implemented in our school, but there are some institutions which more or less try to do it. As we have joined to wotk on eTwinning projects it is really important to change the way looking at things . I have prepared the video about the historical places which are around XII century. It was about if there was any differences or similarities between these buildings. The task was about to make research about 3 different buildings in the centre of the City ( Baku - Inner city ) .It helped them inmany ways. ( I should say that the students themselves provided tablets - we don't have tablets at school ) I think flipped classroom concept is the best way of creating something new.
