The Use of Hot Potatoes in English Lessons

Using Hot Potatoes, teachers can create their own online exercises where students can get access at home. Online exercises such as cross word puzzles, open cloze, matching, etc can be easily created with a few clicks. I think it is very a convenient and effective tool in English lessons. By varying the types of exercises students need to to do, they will be motivated. For instance, instead of repeating doing reading exercises, students will get bored easily. But with the use of IT and Hot Potatoes, students can experience something new. Therefore, by changing the types of exercises students do, they find the experience of learning English more interesting.
