Lesson Plan & Worksheet

Hyper text and Hypermedia Example

The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
In a beautiful pea-green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
 Wrapped up in a five-pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang to a small guitar,
"O lovely Pussy! O Pussy, my love,
What a beautiful Pussy you are,
You are,
You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!"

II

Pussy said to the Owl, "You elegant fowl!
 How charmingly sweet you sing!
O let us be married! too long we have tarried:
But what shall we do for a ring?"
They sailed away, for a year and a day,
To the land where the Bong-Tree grows
And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood
With a ring at the end of his nose,
His nose,
His nose,
With a ring at the end of his nose.

 III
"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling Your ring?"
Said the Piggy, "I will."
So they took it away, and were married next day
By the Turkey who lives on the hill.
They dined on mince, and slices of quince,
Which they ate with a runcible spoon;
And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,
They danced by the light of the moon,
The moon,
 The moon,
They danced by the light of the moon.

Hot Potatoes Review

"Hot Potatoes, it is a software suite that helps its user to create simple exercises using five application  JCloze, JCross, JMatch, JMix and JQuiz."

As a Diploma in IT (Programming) graduate, I can say that I have a lot of experiences using authoring and programming software in creating application software. I have developed a number of software, applications and animations intended for educational purposes. The only problem that I faced when developing such program was I need to prepare everything from a scratch and it requires a lot of time to finish it. Being introduced to HotPotatoes really solves the problem for me. It works as an exercise template generator that allows its user to create simple computerized exercises with minimal workloads in a minimum time limit. It is perfect for teachers that have a little knowledge on computer to utilize computer technology into their teaching.  I wish I've come across this software a lot sooner before my practicum as I could have used it to create interesting exercises for my students. But there's nothing to gain by regretting the past. The only thing I can do now is to fully utilize the software to its advantage so that i can create an interesting lesson for my students.
