Technology on Language Teaching

Hi everyone, I hope you are all fine and safe. Today, we will talk about Flipped Grammar Teaching Video Task. As you can remember, we have done another flipped teaching video which is about vocabulary teaching to elementary students. Grammar video is to prep students to high school.  Because of this reason, we don't want to use illustrations here. Instead, we made us recorded real. We thought it would be better them to focus. As you can see, we worked here with groups, again. We were together İlayda, again (you can see her blog link below).  I think, creating a grammar video to prep students was easier than elementary ones. Because we are much more familiar them, our ages are closer and we can realize what they need, what they want to and most important, how can they do that. So, the way we deal with the task has shaped by thinking the issues.  The prep students are more tend to use flipped classrooms than the younger ones. They can lead themselves, they can know where to note, whe

Me and my pair, İlayda, we used ‘Animaker’ to create one. It was very tiring, actually. It should be well-designed and prepared and so, we worked hard on it. It was the most challenging part of group work is meeting. Internet disconnections, time m
