Just four apps mentioned here, but that's probably a good start.

Blake Turnbull's curator insight, May 13, 2013 5:19 PM

We all know who important vocabularly acquisition is, and so free apps to aid in this process are certainly a bonus!! This article looks at 4 apps: Kids' Vocab by MindSnacks, English First High Flyers, Flashcardlet, and Futaba, with details about them all and the way in which they can support vocabulary acquisition.

Jhon Stiven Hernandez Gutierrez's curator insight, August 1, 2018 10:57 AM
The article highlights the importance of integrating technology and language learning. The author mentions that students can develop their language skills by engaging apps which include differents games. The first app, which is called Kids' Vocab, is a tool for helping children increase their vocabulary. New words are presented by categories and learners can practice them by playing games. The second application is called EF high flyers, and it enables language learners to practice new vocabulary by the use of flashcards. This tool includes audio, images and quizzes. The next app is Flashcardlet and is similar to the previous one in that students can practise vocabulary through flashcards. And, the last app is called Futaba, and it is targeted to younger learners since they learn by playing games. This tool includes visual material so students can interact by matching pictures with definitions.
