Exercise Generator is a time-saving tool that enables teachers to create and print out paper-based worksheets in minutes. The program includes a bank of texts and activities on topics as diverse as orang-utan rehabilitation, Harry Potter, the Jaipur leg and the Museum of the Moving Image. These texts are at five levels of ability from Elementary to Advanced, representing a variety of text-types, and are differentiated by sentence length, grammatical structure and vocabulary.

The great strength of Exercise Generator is that it additionally allows teachers to input their own texts which are then quickly and easily turned into neatly laid-out activities. The program includes nine different exercise types including gapfill, jumbled words, wordsearch, proof reading and sentence matching. Use of this range of activity types "is excellent for coursework preparation or detailed study of a text." (see Evaluation link at top.)

Altering the source text enables teachers to create differentiated worksheets for a mixed ability class.

The program allows teachers to archive their worksheets for future use with titles describing their content and intended use. This makes it easy for department members to collaborate in building up a bank of activities.

Exercise Generator was originally developed with Oxford University Press and was recently officially adopted by the Ministry of Education in Malaysia for 800 schools. "The teachers were grateful for Exercise Generator," reported a Malaysian trainer. "How their eyes sparkled at the end of the session!"

Exercise Generator is available for English at five levels, or in a multi-language version including English, French, German and Spanish.
