Wild Cards
This section features a selection of insightful and inspiring resources I discovered during the course.
These "wild cards" include articles, tools, and teaching ideas related to the use of ICT in English language teaching. While this page does not showcase my own classroom tasks, the listed materials reflect what I found especially creative, practical, or thought-provoking. I believe these resources can be valuable for any teacher looking to enhance their lessons with digital tools and fresh perspectives.
