Technology on Language Teaching

  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.

  Hi everyone, I hope you are all fine and healthy. Now, after a brief break, we are back here again our new task, Augmented Reality. I have to say that,it was the most challenging task not only for the second term, but also for the whole year. You may wonder 'Why?' Because we had difficulties while searching for application to create augmented reality, 3D forms and so on. And at the end, we couldn't find the proper app to create augmented reality and we had to use only 3D Models to include some visuals for our students. Augmented reality is like re-creation of the reality in virtual environment.  We use it in our classes. I think it is useful in that attractiveness. I really like visiting the well-prepared realities and it makes data permanent. It is funny, also. But, in that preparation a reality, I can't say it is funny. We gave it lots of time and patient because our apps didn't work properly. We tried to do our best, but as I said, it was pretty challenging. We
