Vocabulary is something that most students do not think of as fun or exciting.  Instead, it is something that you memorize, and get tested on.  Technology is allowing learning vocabulary to be much more fun and engaging for students, which will help students retain vocabulary better and learn more vocabulary on their own time.  Students can use programs like Wordle to focus on the most important vocabulary words, and even play vocabulary games on computers.  Technology also allows students to express the vocabulary they have learned in a creative way and teach their peers about what they have learned.
