Welcome Back!

-

 Hello my dear folowers. I thought I made you wait too much, and you probably miss me so I decided to come back for you. Real education and technology lovers, yes this is you :)

Joking. I mean the missing part, though. :(

This term I will be preparing things under the name of my new lesson in Marmara University, Material design (*gliter*). Now that I'm back let's talk about something new today, at least for me :)

Task Based Corpus Material. What is it? Well, corpus, as you know, is the huge collection of words that forms a language, and it provides the data for language learners. In corpus based material design the aim is to help students raise their language awareness by practising data-driven learning. You can find many webtools for this purpose, some of them are, Lextutor, Skell, English Corpora or what I choose for my material Wordhippo.


 

Look how cute it is. I prepared it with my dear friend Bilge YENGEL. We did our best to create this material using Canva, and tried to stick to our professor's, Gökçe KURT TİFTİK once again (*cheering*), instructions. I hope you like it:)

Until the next post see you and stay healthy.

This time it was easier because we get used to using animaker, and thankfully it took less time. You can see our video right below. We were supposed to prepare a quiz for this video and guess which tools this lazy group used again? Wordwall , not surprised! Hey come check this classy quiz. Here, click this. This was my favourite task in this lesson actually. Yes, it did take much more time and effort than we imagined but with team

HELLO DEAR FOLLOWERS! Today we are going to talk about Digital Storytelling. Let's start. Digital Storytelling means creating a digital story by using tools such as video, audio, pictures and text. There are some key elements if you are making digital stories; Point of view. What is the main point of the story? A dramatic question. A key question that keeps the viewer's attention. Your gifted voice. (some of us are unlucky about it ;) ) Personalizing the story to help the audience understand the context. Impact of the soundtrack.  Pacing. The rhythm of the story. We, in our Educational Technologies course, created our own digital story as a project with my classmates  Gizem YILDIRIM and Hazal ULUDAĞ . We use Pixton Storyboard Maker website for this project.We made editing, voice recording together and found proper sound effects. It was a bit challenging but highly enjoyable :) We named our digital story as ' DAY DREAM '. It is a story of a d

HELLO DEAR FOLLOWERS!  Here I am with my Educational Technology course homework: Padlet. (Yay!) Padlet is a website in which you can create online bulletin board and use it to share some information about any topic. You can simply write the informations or you can add links, images, videos and files to make your board more professional. For this Padlet homework we came together with my friends; Ayşe Ceren ÖZTÜRK, Hande ÖZTÜRK and Şebnem SÖNMEZ . We chose our topic (Violence Against Women In Turkey) and started working. Finally we created the padlet. You can find our board below. Don't forget to comment on it. It seems that's all for now :) Thanks for reading. .ZeyUs.
