Bamboozle and Wordwall
Despite the fact that interactive platforms are extremely helpful in developing modern and interesting lessons for students, we should pay attention to their drawbacks.
Let's take a look at them:
- Level of tasks: typically, this program can be used for lessons with students who are currently at a beginner or intermediate level of language acquisition. There are not enough tasks for higher levels, which makes it a little difficult to find appropriate materials.
- Internet Dependency: If Bamboozle activities require a reliable internet connection, it may pose challenges in settings where internet access is limited or unreliable.
- Inaccuracies: since tasks on the platform are created by people, they can make mistakes. Therefore, teachers should constantly check the material they are going to use.
- Monotony: many interactive exercises have the same task. Pronunciation: since there are many picture-based exercises for learning new vocabulary in this task, it would be easier to add more voice acting. this way, students will better remember the pronunciation and meaning.
