Presentation of the WordWall3 cloud-based international online curriculum database framework software

Nowadays, it is an essential requirement for teachers to master the use of new information techniques and tools, as well as software. The latest technology - an interactive touch screen without a projector - provides a really good opportunity for both teachers and students to visually obtain information about their environment through simulation and to participate interactively in educational processes. The inclusion and use of smart mobile devices is an inseparable element of the most modern education and measurement system.

Of course, state-of-the-art presentation tools alone are not enough to capture students' attention, something else is needed.

In recent years, curriculum developers have made a number of useful and spectacular developments, which are already being used by teachers in the classroom with great success. However, it was also necessary to create a virtual community where instructors could share their prepared educational materials with each other, free of charge and in a form that could be further edited later. Just as water makes its way and the Internet does not set national boundaries, the WordWall application, available since 2006, has spread to many European countries, and its teaching materials can be shared and further edited without restriction. As the teaching society continued to develop thanks to the digital strategy, the developers of WordWall also kept pace, as from January 2017 the previously registered community was integrated into a cloud-based system, together with the already prepared teaching materials. Thanks to this, it became possible to involve the students in class work not only with individual manual voting units, but also with platform-independent - so-called mobile smart - devices, with the result statement and the conduct of playful quizzes. It is important to mention that as a result, not only a closed, IP-based classroom measurement system, but also remote participants can follow the information displayed on the screen with the help of the weblink generated by the task sequences (in e-learning mode). The teacher can collect the votes of the participants together with the answers of the participants, analyze them, save them digitally, or export them.

So, with the help of the WordWall3 software - the content displayed on the touch screen can be freely shared on the students' devices, be it a notebook, desktop computer, tablet or smart phone, and thanks to the cloud-based solution, client devices can be connected without installation, so it can be used on any platform. Since there is still no complete wireless Internet coverage in classrooms in our country, the manufacturer also adds a desktop application to the package. (in case of internet access, it establishes a connection with the cloud-based registered account) And with the help of the WordWall 3.5 desktop application, which can be freely installed on the built-in computer of the touch screen, teachers can also create teaching materials in the so-called offline mode, which they can display with the touch screen. If an ordinary wireless router that can be used in our homes is also connected to the built-in computer, using the IP number, in the same way as in the case of an Internet connection, they can freely share study materials and assignments on the students' smart devices. Currently, by filling in 33 different form templates, which can be set in 21 languages, it is possible for instructors to create spectacular animations in a matter of seconds, but the improvements will of course be continuously expanded with the Internet version update.
