April showers brought May flowers and indeed, there are many free online courses blooming on various platforms - and since next week I'm going to have a well-deserved May mini-break, I managed to find nice subjects to study, so that you'll have something to choose from even before May starts!

You must have heard of Quizlet and Kahoot!, but today I want to share my favourite quiz-making application: Quizizz. Apart from a name (try remembering which z is doubled!), this tool is not only useful and easy to grasp, but also fun to use, both for teachers and students. Quizizz allows people to create and use one another’s multiple-choice quizzes, so they can be used live as a form of classroom competition, or as homework.

For a while now I've been sharing ideas on free online courses you can take up every month - hopefully you find them inspiring at least as much as I do. One of the comments I get is that while it's easy to find a nice course and sign in, it's far more difficult to complete it. Some people say that's why paid courses are a better option as you feel the pressure on finishing something you paid for.
