I’ve just been trying out PrettyPolly to brush up my Spanish before heading to Mexico next week. It’s pretty impressive (not my Spanish). Great that you can create your own bot to discuss any specific subject you want to develop your speaking ability around. Great for learning multiple languages and you can have 7 free conversations each month https://www.prettypolly.app/signup?ref=bthLol

AI Won’t Transform Education… https://bit.ly/4bHD7cK This is very true "We have built an education system around our assessments and not designed assessments that truly demonstrate an individual’s unique capabilities. And to add to this we then hold this up as the standard by which we measure the success of that same system. It becomes a self perpetuating feedback loop. "

This is a nice site where you can select a city and then watch a virtual walk around the city. The video quality is very good, and you can also have the sound on. Great to get students taking walks and then telling their peers what they saw and where they went. https://citywalks.live/

Amazy is a fantastic tool for creating interactive worksheets for students. It's a bit like an interactive version of Twee and also has an LMS for tracking students answers https://buff.ly/4dTtg5T There's even a community that shares lesson materials. It can create lots of different types of activities, including ones that enable student to record and submit their speaking for evaluation.
