I like "Pinterest" because of its convenience that the users can just click on the "save" button on the files and then the application can automatically download and save the file in your designated folder. It is an incredible application for my teaching and learning English because I did bother to categorise thousands of millions of files and put them into the right folders so that I can dig them out easily when I want to use or look for the related information one day. I would like to tell my students to do so because there is nothing can be easier than just saving something useful on Webpages by just one click. They could continue their self-learning according to different topics created by other users of Pinterest as well. This application can train students to organise learning materials and help stimulate their schemata as well as show their whole project when presentation.
Prezi
In my opinion, it is an application dedicated to education because teachers who have any emails that are given by education institutes can register and use this app. The slides movements of Prezi is smoother and more attractive than the other software's (PowerPoint). The slides made by Prezi can be zoomed "out" or "in" in order to give the audience a glimpse of the overall planning of the presentation and the detail parts of the slides respectively. This application suits the presentation which is needed to explain the "processes" or "description" very well in my teaching situation. I planned to use it when I have any chance of presentations to my colleagues because I believe the app can help me to map out the overview and the points that we need to discuss in a more interesting way. Also, I can use it when I teach students how to make an outline or a mindmap at the pre-writing stage; I believe it is suitable for teaching students the skills of planning.
