This AI tool claims to be able to write the closing line to jokes! Might be nice to get students to try it and see if they can actually get it to produce one that’s funny. Could lead into a discussion of humour https://punchlines.ai/ (unlikely to put comdians out of busines.)

This is a marvelous tool that allows students to engage in debates on any topic with a famous person of their choice. I just debated immigration with Donald Trump! https://debateai.org/debate really useful practice for higher levels.

This is an interesting AI tool that enables users to get a Tarot reading about any challenge they are facing. As well as giving a reading it also encourages self reflection through creative visualisation tasks. https://www.selfgazer.com/

TalkNotes is an impressive free app that allows to to take notes by speaking and convert them into different types of texts. They can be plain transcripts of what you say or it will convert them to lists, journal entries or notes. These can be edited before you store them. The free version is unlimited and the paid version offers other styles that you can convert to. https://talknotes.io/

This is a fantastic collection of public domain films, cartoons, documentaries and TV shows. Easy to download and great for making lessons more interesting. https://retroflix.org/

This is a great tool if you prefer listening to reading. It also adds a short summary https://www.letsrecast.ai

Here’s a video showing how it works https://youtu.be/zGVn8Nh4Rks

Apologies for the very late FlashFriday sale. I was in Istanbul at the end of last week delivering training workshops on Creativity in ELT and ELT and the Sustainable Development Goals at Bilfen Schools on behalf of Oxford University Press, and after flying back have come down with a bad cold.

Excuses aside, this week’s FlashFriday sale is a collection of lesson plans based on short video clips. In these lessons, I try to use the video clips to develop students’ multimodal literacies as well as their English.

For the next 48 hours, you can get 50% off of any or all of these plans.

I hope you enjoy these video shorts plans. Using video in the classroom, and developing multimodal literacies, is something I and my students have always enjoyed doing together. I hope you can enjoy it too.

Kind regards
