Современные школьники любят использовать гаджеты для различных целей. Почему бы не дать им домашнее задание с использованием ИКТ? Это нескучно и увлекательно для ребят.
Сегодня для учителя существует большое количество сервисов, позволяющих превратить стандартное задание учебника в интересную игру, которая не только мотивирует учеников к действию, но и способствует достижению результатов: развитию различных УУД, ИКТ-компетентности, а также личностных качеств учащихся.
Одним из моих любимых сервисов создания интерактивных упражнений является платформа www.learningapps.org, которая позволяет создавать интерактивные упражнения различных форматов, просто наполняя шаблоны своим материалом.

Ученикам было предложено изучить информацию с сайта http://projectbritain.com/famous_people.htm о некоторых известных людях Великобритании. На сайте даны очень краткие сведения о некоторых деятелях культуры, ученых, писателях, а также политиках. Нет больших текстов, которые чаще всего пугают учеников и отбивают желание читать. Язык не особенно сложный, поэтому сильных затруднений чтение контента не вызывает. Большим плюсом также является аутентичность сайта, языка, всего содержания. Также интересно то, что на сайте представлены самые известные британцы по мнению самих британцев.
