Quizlet

In the 3 minutes demo lesson class, I got to know a website called Quizlet through Yichen's demo lesson. I found it was very useful and interesting. I checked out this website after the class and put it into my future teaching tool list. 
It is a website for teachers to create quiz for students. The quizzes cover many different subjects: languages, standardized test, math, science, history, literature, law, medical, etc. Although it is called quiz, it is more like learning through self-testing. 
On an English learning lesson set page, there are a list of the new vocabulary with audio, picture and meaning for learners to study and flashcards for studying one word by one word. Learners have different choice of learning. There are two big chooses in a quiz: Study and Play Games. In Study part, one has three options: Speller, Learn and Test; in Play Games part, one can choose from: Scatter and Space Race. 
In Speller part, one just need to type in what he heard, which is much like dictation. When the spell is wrong, the wrong letter will be highlighted and cross out automatically. At the same time, the audio will play again and the right words will appear for learning. Then everything disappear for the learner to type in again. It is a very good way to learn and self-test. 
In  Learn part, learners need to type in the words by listening to the meaning of the words. The prompt and pictures may be offered for the visual learners. Once one fails, the right answer will appear and one will be asked to copy the right answer in the box for reinforce learning process. 
In Test part which is the real quiz part, students will have blank filling questions, multiple choice questions, matching questions and T/F questions in the test. One thing that calls my attention is the randomly questions in this part. Every test is different from the previous one. The website will automatically create different tests for learners to keep testing the same knowledge in different question forms. 
Scatter is a fast-paced action game for dragging the vocabulary onto its definition. Space Race tests both of the vocabulary knowledge as well as the typing skills. In these two way, language learners can learn and test their knowledge through fun games.
