This morning, I jumped off the cliff and decided to the iPod Touches with 2 of my French classes for the first time. They used the app "French Lite" to review the vocabulary we had previously studied (numbers, months, days of the week ) and were so enthralled one could barely hear a pin drop. I like the fact that the flashcards on this app have an audio component and allow students to review the words by hearing them said aloud; the app also allows them to quiz themselves by answering multiple choice answers of the translations. French Lite's listening and spelling part were a hit with my students and I had never seen students more eager and more focused in their learning. Everyone was ready to share something they had reviewed as their "ticket out!" [efm]
