Some of you may already be familiar with Google docs, but up until now, I have used mainly MSN hotmail. I have now joined the modern world in order to share these links with you. If you know of any other sites you would like to share which may enhance learning, then please add them to the list. Thank you! ]]> 2017-10-26 07:11:58 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/200697675 sarahfletcher https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/200698608 2017-10-26 07:16:21 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/200698608 sarahfletcher https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/200706990 Dear students,
I would like to share this app with you. Perhaps you have watched a video on YouTube that you enjoyed but thought 'this is just to long to share, how can I skip to the good stuff?'. Well now that it possible with EDpuzzle. It allows you to trim videos down to a suitable length, add questions, either open questions or multiple choice, record audio comments and share with your friends. If you would like to find out more, I have created a page for our class, simply follow the link below. ]]> 2017-10-26 07:58:12 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/200706990 sarahfletcher https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/200785629 My name is Sarmad Malik and I am from Pakistan.I am an ACCA Finalist.

1. You must use GoogleDocs or Office 360 to share this document. Download and save a copy, make sure you rename it once downloaded, maybe you could add your names to the document title. Each student will summarise one section of the article. 
2. Once you finish, you will read and edit your partner's summary by writing comments in the margins. Then save and share your link onto the Padlet.
3. Finally, read another pairs' work and comment on the strengths and weaknesses of their work on their Padlet.

However, they should be used sparingly because students' reading at loads at university can be quite high; there simply isn't time to check every single word. It is also wise to avoid translating, often the translation can be incorrect, inappropriate, or not the correct word form. I recommend Wordnik because it provides a range of definitions from many dictionaries, examples, synonyms and links to texts which have used the word. ]]> 2017-11-07 14:59:12 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204378958 sarahfletcher https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204385704 Manchester Phrasebank contains core phrases which will help you to structure your assignments.

You may now be wondering how can I check whether I am using enough words from the AWL? One option is attached below, another option is the AWL highlighter on EAP Foundation: http://www.eapfoundation.com/vocab/academic/highlighter/
You simply cut and paste sections of your assignment into the yellow text box, then it analyses your text. The yellow words are from the AWL. What is also quite useful about this site is that it puts all the words into alphabetical order. This could help you to identify whether the vocabulary in your assignment is repetitive. ]]> 2017-11-07 15:15:59 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204390094 sarahfletcher https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204392155 One other way that rewordify can help students is with identifying parts of speech. Plagiarism is a serious offence at university, one way to avoid that is by paraphrasing. It helps if students are familiar with word forms in order to paraphrase. Once students are aware of this, it becomes easier to change the word form, for example, manage (verb) can be changed to management (noun), and then used as either the subject or the object of a sentence. 

Another use of rewordify is in your presentations. Native speakers tend to stress nouns and main verbs as these convey the message. Words like prepositions and articles are often unstressed, and spoken much more quickly because they are no as important. Therefore, using Rewordify to identify parts of speech can help students to make their presentations much clearer. ]]> 2017-11-07 15:19:03 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204392155 sarahfletcher https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204394247 This video teaches you the grammar of modal verbs and main verbs through recent pop songs. ]]> 2017-11-07 15:22:28 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204394247 sarahfletcher https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204426810 UEFAP is a one stop shop for students' academic needs. It covers how to reference, word forms - nominalisation (turning verbs and adjectives to nouns), and paragraph structure. ]]> 2017-11-07 16:08:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204426810 sarahfletcher https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204450195 When you cite from an article or book, you should aim to use a combination of summarising and paraphrasing. You also need to use a reporting verb if your citation is author prominent. Students are usually familiar with 'states' and 'according to', however, this is limited as there can be a range of stances and strength of arguments conveyed by reporting verbs. This guide provides information as to how you can express different functions, and to what extent your stance is similar to the author of the text you have cited from. ]]> 2017-11-07 16:42:47 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/204450195 sarmadmalik74 https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/206282774 2017-11-13 15:18:37 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/206282774 sarmadmalik74 https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/206283614 2017-11-13 15:19:51 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/206283614 iurkac92 https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/206741965 2017-11-14 14:50:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/206741965 sarahfletcher https://padlet.com/sarmadmalik74/o9zxez1fwa1a/wish/207576882 This is another useful site for visual aids in presentations.
