'TILL NEXT TIME, GOODBYE

       Before I take this course my view about technology integration in English language teaching was not exactly the same as my current view. Of course I was aware of the fact that technology is an important part of our lives and integrating it in many areas can be beneficial and helpful. but to be honest, I didn't think technology can be as productive as it is fun for educational purposes. Maybe it's because I haven't witnessed such things before.  I had not done the assignment examples I did for this course before. Thanks to this course, I realized that there are many educational, efficient and entertaining ways of teaching through technology.       I did many tasks for this course this semester. Some of them were easy for me and some were relatively more difficult. When I think about it, I guess the one I liked the most was to prepare a poster . I really enjoyed preparing my music-themed magazine cover. The one I liked the least might be...

LET'S MAKE WEBQUEST!

Image
  Hello everyone      I am here with my last task for the material design in ELT course. My task this time was to prepare a Webquest. What we had to do for this task was to choose a project from the sample coursebook given by our teacher and turn it into a technological project. And again, with my friend Beyza , we chose a project from the sample coursebook. The project we chose is to prepare a poster about protecting our nature.      In the task we designed on Canva , we first informed the students about the subject in the instruction section. Then, in the task and process section, we explained to the students what they need to do and the steps to do it. We directed students to several websites that provided information about getting to know and protecting our nature. Afterwards, we asked the students to write a 100-word paragraph as far as they learned from these sites, and we put a sample of the paragraph we wanted for the students to review. Af...

I PUBLISHED A MAGAZINE, I MEAN KIND OF...

  Hello everyone!!      This week I’m back with a very   aesthetic   project. This week our assignment was to create a digital poster. Among the options, I chose to make a magazine cover   that looked   the most fun for me to prepare. I chose Sofia Karlberg, one of my favorite singers, as the cover model. And I completed the assignment on Canva.      To be honest, among all the assignments I’ve done   for the Educational Technology course this year, this is probably my favorite. Making a music magazine cover was even more fun than I thought at first. I should also mention that the ease of use of the Canva website for which I prepared the cover of the magazine has a great effect on this. If you want to make digital posters easily, I highly recommend Canva.      Creating a digital poster is definitely a method I can use with future students. I'm sure they will have as much fun preparing their homework as I do. ...
