There are so many Apps for creating and learning that trying to decide which one/s you need can make your head spin. Well, I have finally found the one that I can NOT live without...My head IS STILL spinning...but it's because I am in LOVE with MOTE!

Educator or Creator--Check out the learning portion of the MOTE website for ideas ranging from making holiday cards to micro podcasting and everything in between!

Thank you MOTE--You Float My Boat!

I teach Spanish and English as second languages. I was looking for an easy way to add my voice to Google Slides -- MOTE was the answer!! I have been burned by other extensions -- but MOTE was easy and intuitive and did exactly what I wanted. Being able to record and add the audio on the same page makes my life so much easier. When I share slides with my students, they can access my voice for listening practice in the language they are studying.

I spend a LOT of my time typing comments on documents: I supervise postgraduate students. I've explored a number of speech-to-text systems. Most of them fail when you use technical language in my field and generally become unusable for anything except generic colloquial language. Mote is the best I have found so far that does a good job of transcribing that manages the technical jargon of my field. It has really improved my productivity on providing detailed notes on documents.
