Use this Activity:

 
Whiteboard - This is the perfect activity for students to come to the whiteboard, click the spelling or usage errors and correct them. Alternatively, you can project to the whiteboard and call on students to identify the errors.
Group work - This is a great activity for students to break up into pairs and collaborate to complete the exercise on a single computer.
Extend - For a homework assignment, have students come up with their own factually problematic paragraphs and allow them to exchange with their classmates to see if they can correct each other's.
