CiC3-TB

C REATING VOCAB QUIZZES Lists of key vocabulary for each part of each unit have been created on the free online flashcard service known as “Quizlet” (see quizlet.com for more information). When you make a set of flashcards on Quizlet, it’s possible to embed it on another website, like a YouTube video. The CiC3 sets have thus been put into the cic-multimedia.com website to make it easy for your students to access and practice vocabulary on their smartphones or computers outside of class.

One of the key features of Quizlet is the ability to practice vocabulary in different ways. Students can flip through the cards, practice writing and spelling, play games, and take a test. These tests can be taken by your students in class, and they take only a few minutes to complete. It’s a great way to encourage them to practice English outside of class. Begin by clicking the link in the lower left corner. This will take students to the actual set on the quizlet.com website, like this:

By clicking the OPTIONS button, you can customize the test in various ways, such as choosing the question type, starting language, and number of items.

The easiest thing to do is have students complete the test on their smartphones and show you their score. Alternatively, you can print out a test ahead of time and make enough copies for everyone. Either way, this feature makes it really easy to assess vocabulary on a regular basis.
