*Upload handouts, Flash materials, presentations, MP3, etc for students to use

The site also includes:

*Questions for the 3000 most frequently used words broken into 5 bands for students to practice OR be tested with.

*Dozens of timed reading activities written in HotPotatoes, which can also be graded

*Dozens of listening activities using MP3s and CLOZE

*Dozens of ready made handouts

* The ability to add your own content to your classes. These materials can be shared or held privately for your class

The real reason I am inviting you to the site is to conduct research on SLA; I don't really care if you are interested in vocabulary acquisition using Wordchamp or Flashcard Exchange, or if youare curious about the effectiveness of web-based word processors like GoogleDocs or Zoho. I would like to invite you to post your classes here and work together with me or anyone else on the site to conduct research. There are many possibilities here for research and publication. The site provides an excellent structure to share materials, store research data, and collaborate with others while we investigate the impact of technology on language acquisition and language teaching.

I am personally interested in studying a number of things this year.

*First, I would like to study the impact web-based writing has students abilities to master the academic essay.

*Second, I am interested in seeing the benefits to vocabulary acquisition by using a CMS or other web-tool in comparison to the more traditional paper and electronic dictionary versions.

*Third, I developed a series of diagnostic tests and would like to investigate the their impact on grammar mastery.

With a CMS platform, we can research many different things, and we can help each other as we conduct research. So I want to encourage you to add your classes to the site. This is an opportunity to test a Moodle site out and use it for research. Even if you are not interested in conducting research, Moodle makes attendance and gradding much easier than the traditional means. Also, if you put your class up at ituzi.net, you may be able to offer your classes to others who would like to conduct research with the site.

I run the site, but all the data you and your students create are yours: I am claiming no rights to anything you create. I would appreciate it if any materials you do create were made available to me, but that is your choice. And I would enjoy working with you on research projects, but if you have a partner, or wish to work alone, that is fine with me. I am venturing into collaborative research platforms for the first time and will enjoy the experience regardless.

So if you are interested, please contact me, we can talk via email or via Skype (fltuzi). I hope to hear from you
