GOODBYE !

 It is time to say goodbye. I am all caught up with my course projects so I won't be posting any of them anymore. However, maybe I will keep posting about different subjects :) I'd like to tell you a little bit about my course and my thoughts about it. 

I think it helped me in a very big scale, in so many aspects of my life. To be honest, I didn't expect it to be this much beneficial in so many ways. I even referred to some of my projects in an interview and my interviewer was very pleased to hear those examples from me. I did more than just material designing, I learned so many different kinds of tools and methods that I can use. Also, feedback sessions that we did during the term were really helpful in terms of seeing what is right and what is wrong or what are some other options I can use. 

I would recommend making this lesson into a 2 part course because I think there are still so many other things we can learn and benefit from. So, extending the course time would definitely be better.

Hope to see you soon ! Take care :)

AUGMENTED REALITY IN EDUCATION

Hello everyone ! In this post, I will tell you all about something very cool! I prepared a handout which is integrated with Augmented Reality for language learners with my group friends. We were unable to use a real AR application because of some technical issues so we used qr codes instead. I hope that technology will keep up with this awesome opportunity. About our task, we decided to provide students with some of the most famous landmarks, museums and events of the New York City. QR codes were easy to implement so they worked perfectly. We had a hard time finding 360 videos including some information about the places but with some research, we were able to install great videos! You can see how it works below in our informational video. I think once there are more applications available online, these kinds of activities will become so much more beneficial and fun. For the time being, here is our HANDOUT for language learners. OUR INFORMATIONAL VIDEO ABOUT THE TASK And here are

CREATING A FLIPPED VOCABULARY TEACHING VIDEO

     Hello everyone ! In this post , I will tell you all about my latest creation . I prepared a flipped vocabulary teaching video with my group friends and you can see it at the and of this post . We were asked to choose 10 words from a unit within the given coursebook and create such a video for teaching those words . Also , at the end of the video , you can see the matching game we created for checking the understanding of the students šŸ˜Š       I think creating these kinds of flipped classroom videos are so helpful for us in terms of having some experiences in this approach . Also , in terms of implementing this approach to an English classroom , it would be so much beneficial for students because a language can be learned through interaction and exposure of the target language . However , with limited classroom time , teachers don’t have the time for such activities . In this sense , there comes the flipped classroom approach . It allows teachers to make the most out of their valua

CREATING AN INFOGRAPHICS

 Hello everyone !      I am going to write about the infographic design that I created for my lesson project.You can see my design below.      My task was to design an infographic about the online higher education in Turkey during the pandemic.I used Canva to create an infographic.It was pretty easy and enjoyable to create such a product.It provides a range of themes and designs and you can add photos from your own computer to support and visualize your design.      I think it is a very useful task for language learners because it can encourage students to use the language they are learning and it does not have to include higher levels of proficiency in the target language.They can practise their existing knowledge of the language easily.Also, students would have fun creating a design on their own as I did. onlıne hıgher educatıon ın turkey - Dilara Sezgin
