how can we use these programs in our lesson planning?




Mind42
 It is a software application that is fated to create, manage and edit mind map. This program is useful to develop task that in other programs are impossible. With this program we cannot do more than entering thoughts, arranging and refining them, and exploring ideas in a graphical way. Mind42 is a web application. It means that we do not have to download anything to our computer or USB o anywhere. We just need to have access to a computer and to the internet. Well, this is a problem because this program is always available only by internet. There is not a downloadable application or a portable version.

Youthink
Youthink is a web site for teacher to create individual tests, ask and answer questions. They can also create profiles, journals, forums, and some other things. The major utility of this work is that that students can develop many activities in class or in the place they want when having internet. In case that learners work with forums, they can interact with one another by giving their own opinions, so this might help them to improve their learning skills by developing any task.





Brainshark
Brainshark is a software to present videos on high-definition. This program let the students work in home, or from the place they better consider, so educators can make presentations including questions, tracks, explanations etc. Teachers can create their own learning tutorials based on specific topics, so that students interactively learn new things by using any device.


Mailvu
MailVU is a free video sharing application, in which it is easy record and send full length videos via different tools to a person anywhere. We just need to create an account and start using it, to be a MailVU user. the benefit of this application is that students can record videos of any length related to any topic and share them to other students, so they also may have peer assessment, and it is not necessary record videos just from computers since we can record and send them from phones, tablets, through SMS texts or emails etc.


Worldgoogle
This programs allows us to create, edit and share word documents online. this tool is used by students because they can share important things with others classmates, so the documents that students create are similar to Microsoft word, but the disadvantage of using this tool is that it is necessary have internet otherwise students cannot work in word Google, so it is important that teachers encourage students to use this tool, which can be used to develop a variety of activities in class or from the place they prefer.
