The Final Post, Unfortunately

Hi everyone,

We have ended the term ... We were here with you to share our tasks and how technology can be integrated with language teaching.

Beforehand, I couldn’t think technology would so helpful in ELL classes. Actually, I couldn’t imagine it as a tool. This course gave me this idea. It is not about using computers, edit programs etc. It is beyond that, I learned that which is really core to grasp the technology using idea in ELL classes.

You know, we did lots of things throughout the course. Among them, my favourite one is absolutely the ‘Digital Story-Telling Task’. It was the most complex one, it was challenging and difficult to record videos, take photos, create a theme or template but it was a group work, which didn’t okay with me in my school life before taking this course. Thanks to this course, I like being in a group and it is really important for me to carry forward in my career as a teacher or just a human. But besides, ‘Wikii’ project is not really good to take place. I think it was the least useful one. It didn’t attract my attention at all and it was not enjoyful to deal with. But yet, it was a task at the end of the day and we had to do it.

If I were to give this course, I would use much more group works to make students break their taboos and prejudices down towards this kind of things. Because, group works are the best way to improve your intelligence and skills to communicate, for me.

Now, we have to go. It was really nice to be here with you, work with my group friend (thanks to all of them) and taking this course from Gökçe Hoca was a very big chance for me. I wish health and safety for you all. I hope see you soon.

 

Loves,Şayan.

  Hi everyone, This is the last time we meet, unfortunately. We have ended the term. We were here with you to show you our materials designed for our students as it was in the first term. What we have dealt with together ? First of all, we learned what is 21st century learning. We examined it from different perspectives.  We studied in groups. We crossed our borders, we became familiar with group working. We had tough times, we couldn't find proper tools or etc. But we have learned how to overcome difficulties we had. We learned searching for alternative ways all the time. We learned directing students, making them the main factor of the learning process which is vital for attracting them.  We have ended the term as our hands are full of baskets with flowers, I mean. It was enjoyful journey for me. I finished the class with a difference on me : Now, I know how to create fitting material for our students and how to make them informed about anything. It will prevent confusi...

Padlet Task on Lack of Education Topic

  Hi everyone, I hope you are safe and healthy. Here I am again with a new project which is padlet creating task. We have done it with my group mates, it was not individually-done project I mean. Well, let’s have a look how it’s going to create a padlet. First of all, it was very funny to create because we have used visual materials to make it much more attractive for you, readers. We used KWL method, which I have already used it for reading. KWL refers to K for ‘what you know’, W for ‘what do you want to know’ and L for ‘what did you learn after searching’ (It is highly recommended you to use it). We chose ‘lack of education’ topic which is related to our field and we started to search and complete our padlet task. As it is in every other task, padlet task has a specific side: it helps improve our technology use on teaching and it contributes our group-working ability. It makes us much more collobator which is one of the key words on 21st century learning. It is important to...
