However, History isn't boring and it will always be relevant (this coming from a future History teacher), but the learners do not all see the sense in learning about the past. This makes the teacher's job a unique one because there needs to be a way to make the work more engaging and relatable to the learners.
Look no further than ClassTools.net. I stumbled upon it during my teaching practical in September, it is a fun way to create either memes or a spoof Facebook page relating to different parts of History. This online resource could either be used to create funny historical memes on posters for the History classroom or as a tool for the learners when completing assignments - a fun spin on things and a move away from the stiff, boring assignments normally associated with History.
ClassTools.net can also be used to create quizzes, games and other activities. All this without having to sign up or pay for anything. The website can be found at: http://www.classtools.net/
And yes, I know I'm relating this to History, but this tool could also be used in any other subject, including Mathematics and the sciences (Physical, Natural and Life Sciences), and imagine the amazing things you could with this resource for an English novel or play.
