Podcasting

      Hi everyone,I hope you're all doing well.Today I'm gonna be talking about the podcasting,process of making and the podcast purpose.First of all,I have to mention that podcast is a digital audio file made available on the internet for dowloading to a computer or mobile device typically available as series new instalments of which can be received by subscribers automatically.As for my podcast,I choose the ''60 second idea to improve the world''which is a podcast series on BBC.Then I create my own podcast in 60 seconds according to the instructions shared before by our teachers.I explain the ''siesta'' or noon nap for making the world a more livable place,I mention that it has beautiful aspects both indivdually and for the world.I posted it on spotify and anchor so everyone can see my amazing bright idea :).I am not sure if I will make my students do this application in the future.But I am pretty sure that this kind of studies have some advantages sides such as development of foreign  language skills,collaboration  self-paced learning,student centeredness motivating students and so on.I worked in this task individually.I did research in places I did not understand with the help of  YouTube. Actually I had to record the podcast over and over again but still it was a different experience.I was happy to see that I was able to handle this task on my own. So,that is all I'm going to share with you for today.                  Stay tuned for more contents like this,have a good one bye everyone

Web-based project (padlet)

         Hey everyone, today we are going to talk about web-based project that we assigned by our teacher.In this assignment expected that we are going to colloberate with friends to make the project.We chose a predetermined topic and the topic is lack of education.So, we identified the topics that we thought were missing in education.We individually wrote them on the padlet but of course we helped each other from the group we make meanwhile.Preferably I do not like working with group but still it was a good experience.At least we went forward by asking each other about the points we did not understand and completed the task succesfully. By the assistance of padlet we share our ideas,we categorize the ideas and it also offered the oppotunity to work together. In this project we work as four people:me(Leman Ergin),Belinay Yiğit,Mehmet Ali Yıldırım and Zelal Şenyiğit.I personally did not use padlet before this project.Thanks to the assignment I learned how to use the padlet app.I think that the app can be beneficial in language teaching.I can also use this application when I become teacher,I think it provide many advantages By means of the project we make together we cooperated with each other,we were contact with each other.This project gained 21'st century skills such as accessing and analyzing information.

     I think it is all for today stay tuned for more post like this.Byee for now

21'st Century Learning



 Hey everyone, today we are going to discuss about the 21'st century learning. First of all we have to admit that education is a very important  element for societies.It is seen as the most significant form of investment in future of society and people.In addittion getting a good education is one of the most basic rights of every individual.A good education should aim to develop the student at the highest level both academically, emotionally, socially and physically.Studies and predictions should be made about what kind of reality awaits young people in the future and education should be given in parallel.In the new era, the development of competencies such as critical thinking, creativity,information-media-technology literacy and problem solving skills has become important.For more detailed information about 21'st century learning skills mentioned in the image which is on the right click here. With digitalization,the production and storage of information  has increased tremendously.The educational service has undergone great changes in terms of purpose and learning teaching processes and therefore the field of education in the 21'st century has also taken shape in this direction.

    Almost everyone agrees that the current school system no longer meets today's needs.Uniform

schools and classrooms are far from both attracting students and providing an efficient learning environment.The situation shows that education is no longer fit in school.Teaching methods and techniques developed with today's technological facilities now offer the student a number of magical and exiciting opportunities.Some of these are; technology based learning,flipped classrooms online education,virtual reality,augmented reality etc.As such,the roles of students and teachers have changed and now everyone has become a teacher and everyone has become a student. 

It is all for today,stay tuned for more post, goodbye for now.
