A Podcast

-

Hello! In today's post, I will share a task given as the content of our course. Our mission this time was to make a podcast where we would come up with an idea to improve the world and explain it. 

I had no problems while recording and also, I didn't have a hard time choosing the topic because I believe it is something that is really needed. But since I think compressing it into 60 seconds is not enough, I would like to explain a little more.

When we look at the news, we see that there are many negative events. And, the people who carry out these events are not very healthy. Of course, there are people with congenital mental problems, but there are also many people who are negatively affected by their experiences. I think they are the ones who need to be integrated into society. Especially the poor children of people who do not know how to be parents cannot be expected to be healthy when they grow up. So, those who will be parents must also be mentally strong. In addition, it is necessary to help people who have been exposed to trauma. I think it is not impossible for the state to increase the number of clinics and psychology graduates and lend a helping hand to many people. In terms of world development, the world would be happier, more peaceful and full of people who understand and support each other. Thus, development would come naturally and smoothly. That’s why I choose this idea.

I was a little nervous while doing the podcast because I don't like the idea of having anything that belongs to me on websites, even my voice, even my photo in the About Me section. That's why I didn't like this task very much.

I wouldn't give my students podcast assignments because they might not want their voices on the internet as well. Therefore, I would prefer face-to-face speaking activities with them and the use of technology in the classroom.

That's all, thank youu :)

Ethical and Legal Issues Related to Effective Technology Use: Copyright

-
Hello! In today's post, I prepared the topic 'Ethical and Legal Issues Related to Effective Technology Use' as a  template  and also, a  template  with its subtitle 'Copyright'. I briefly introduced and explained the items to you. Since 'ethical and legal issues' is the subject of our course, I prepared both a template for it and a template for 'copyright', which is the sub-heading I chose because it is a comprehensive, interesting and important subject that needs to be known. I found the templates ready-made on the Canva site, I leave the links of the original templates below. I also got help from a site while preparing a template on 'Copyright', I will leave the link of this site below. Finding the appropriate template, especially an eight-item template, was difficult, but it didn't take much effort. I had no difficulty in preparing the template and adapting it to my own subject, I even had fun. If I were to create it from scratch, ...

Lesson plan and material design

-
Hello everyone! In today's post, I will talk about the homework I prepared with my friends. In this homework, we prepared a lesson plan and a Corpus-based material. We used the ASSURE model in our lesson plan. First, let me explain to you what these terms are. Corpus-based Materials: “Corpus-based materials are teaching or learning resources developed using real language data from a corpus. These materials reflect how language is actually used in real-life contexts, making them more authentic and relevant for learners.” ASSURE model: “The ASSURE model is a framework used to prepare an effective lesson plan. It begins by analyzing the student, determining the objectives of the lesson, selecting appropriate materials, using these materials effectively, ensuring active participation of the students, and finally developing the plan through evaluation." We used the COCA application in our material, allowing students to contribute to their own learning. We used Canva to ...

A Digital Story

-
Hello everyone! In today's post, we fulfilled our duty of preparing a 'digital story' and prepared a  video .  This assignment was Creating a Public Service Announcement video and we discussed the harms of using straws to humans, animals and the environment in our assignment. Choosing a topic for this assignment was not difficult at all because it was easy to find a current topic. I did not experience any difficulties in recording audio. However, I would not prefer to give such an assignment to my students because I do not think that it will gain anything, in fact, I think it is a time-consuming activity. I can also give students different tasks that aim to integrate technology.   That's it, thank you.
