GOODBYE EVERYONE!

-

  Hello everyone🙋!
  We’re at the end of the term and I’m here with my last post.😭
  When I heard about the course Educational Technologies at the beginning of the term, I thought that it would be so boring and challenging for me but I was wrong!
  I was waiting for some classic topics about technology but I’ve learned and I’ve accomplished a lot of different and interesting things.
  First of all, when our teacher said that we were going to create our own blog pages, I was worried.
  I was afraid of technology. To be honest, I’m not that close to it but I don’t have any fear anymore because I’ve seen that I could do something  on this platform. I can create, design, share the things which are beneficial both for me as a student and for my future teaching career.
  When I started to do something on my blog, I realized that every task became easier for me day by day. When I go back and look at my first post, I can realize the difference. I’ve became aware of the fact that knowing and teaching aren’t enough to be a teacher today. We must find beneficial and enjoyable ways for our students to show that learning a language can be fun. Maybe I can be the one who destructs the barriers made of fears of language learning, who knows?😏
  I had a lot of fun while doing all these things. The most difficult part was collaboration because I’m a person who loves planning, doing stuffs and working on my own. Maybe we could do them as an individual. Though, it showed me that when we work collaboratively, we have a task which has lots of parts from different perspectives.
  The best task for me was creating an infographic. I was amazed with the things that I could use to create my own task and it was so enjoyable.
  I honestly say that I’m going to use most of the things that we’ve done in my future classes if I can have enough opportunities. It was so exciting and enthusiastic journey and a great experience for me!
  Lastly, thank you all for your companionship during this journey.
  See you🙋!
  Thank you for your time, as always!😢

GREAT WAY FOR LEARNING : PODCASTING!

Hello everyone🙋!   I hope you’re all well. Today, we’re going to talk about an interesting way that we can use in language classes: Podcasting🎤!   Podcast is digital audio file or series of files available on the Internet   which you can download and listen whenever and wherever you want. You can find lots of podcasts about different topics.   When I heard it in our Educational Technology class I felt anxious about creating one because I’d never heard of it before but it’s a great tool for both students and teachers. Students can create their own podcasts and listen to their own voices. They can listen to other people and improve both listening and speaking skills. Teachers can use it to integrate different topics with the class. They can want students to make some activities based on the podcast and bring their works to the class.   It was my assignment to create an idea to change the world and record it in 60 seconds as a podcast. The hardest thing was to find

Hello everyone🙋!    I hope you’re all good. Today,we’re going to talk about 21 st  century and learning.    As time goes on, everything changes in the world. We must be aware of the 21 st  century and it’s requirements in terms of education and technology.    We have four key words to help us:     To improve these skills and build up a new generation which is proper for this century ‘s requirements, our teaching strategies must be related to these skills.   In the 20 st  century, the methods were limited. The teachers were the centre of the class. So,the students weren’t active. How can we expect from the students to have these skills if we go on in the same ways?    In our classes, students should be more active and they should be the doers. We, teachers, should show the ways and guide them. We can use activities in the class and make them work together. By sharing their ideas with each other, they can learn how to think from different perspectives. If
