This Spring, students in Mr. Dougherty, Ms. Lunger, and Ms. Connell's English classes are trying out a new vocabulary software entitled Membean. The multi-modal interface provides several distinct tools for learning. Some of the highlights include pages with word constellations, context, roots, modern usage, and memory hooks. With the software, teachers are able to customize vocabulary learning for each student. Membean is entirely web-based, requiring nothing to install. This appears to be a good fit for Blair's BYOD technology environment.
