Todays Meet


If you want to share ideas, TodaysMeet is the best website for doing so. It is perfect for sharing ideas in large groups such as conferences. A good space is provided for people to ask questions and inquiries. A room can be created for a time that last between two hours and one year depending on what is needed and all is for free.
In relation to language teaching, this website is helpful for shy students who want to share their ideas. It helps them to have a role in the class interaction and say what they have in mind.
One suggested activity is that the teacher, at the end of the class, can raise a question, then the students post their answers in the room created by the teacher. This is helpful for students because they become able to read each others ideas and develop their own ideas and even to give feedback for each other and negotiate their points of view.
This website is not always helpful because the teacher cannot always guarantee the participation of all students and this may negatively affect some students who may disappear from such tasks and thus become completely isolated from the class.
