Task Challenge #4 - Write Comments

One of the skills our students need to develop is expressing their opinions about different topics. Task #4 involves leaving a comment on a virtual board for the whole class. In fact, the same board is being used by 3 different groups of the same level of English.

Students discussed the topic in class, and then were asked to leave a written comment. I've been sending to students the correction of their texts and next week they will be asked to edit their comments on the board according to the suggested corrections they have received via edmodo.

This is a screenshot of the challenge message shared with students via edmodo


The tool used was STIXY. Click on the image below to see the Virtual Board.

Create an Interactive Wall with your students

I've always liked WALLWISHER, however, due to the limit of characters you can type on the sticky notes, if you want your students to write lengthy texts then Wallwisher won't work.

I had been looking for a similar tool with more space for writing.
STIXY serves the purpose. You can create a wall where several people can collaborate and share notes (long texts), photos, links and documents.
