Blogs are a great way to learn and teach. 

Blogger, provided by Google, can greatly benefit teachers and students by making learning easier! It's amazing how nowadays with all of the available technology, education can become simpler. 

Blogger can help students practice their writing skills with daily or weekly posts, as well as help them keep track of the learning content taught in class. For teachers, it can help them keep records of each student's notes and assignments for a specific class - though teachers must make sure to use blogs to their advantage and prevent an overload of work instead.

Another great tool we can use in education is a website called Tiny Texts in English which you can visit using the link provided here. You'll find interesting and engaging reading and listening materials - usually a short reading passage and an audio file. 

You can also find a PowerPoint Presentation reviewing the previous topics below.

That is communication and information technologies (TIC) in education.  Learners can have personalized experiences in the classroom thanks to the use of digital platforms that they can use and access according to their specific needs. And us teachers might feel like we don't understand how all this works, that's why we must learn alongside the students and be up to date on every new advance.  As we have discussed throughout the weeks, technology can be our best ally.
