Getting IT Right @ CeVMS: LOTE and DuoLingo

Did you know that you can learn a language for free on DuoLingo? The CeVMS LOTE teachers do and they are having their students take full advantage of the "Sign in with Google" option on the site. Check it out:



As part of the Google Apps for Education initiative, students can use their school assigned Google Accounts to log in to a variety of sites.
