Is It A Goodbye? Maybe, Maybe Not

Hello to my dear fellows, As you can see from the title of my post, this may be my last post. Or not. I don't know. Maybe, it is just a break.  As you all know I write in this blog because it is a requirement of the Material Design course I take this year. I am supposed to tell you about the tools we have learned to create materials and what I have gone through while using them.  When I first heard this from our teacher Dr Gökçe Kurt Tiftik, it seemed like it would be tiring. But it was not like that at all. Writing here, talking with you, introducing all those tools with my own words... All of them was a great way to learn using those tools. I must say it also develops my English quite a lot. You know my first language is Turkish. ALSO, another plus point is that I feel like an up-to-date person who uses technology while keeping this blog. So we use technology while learning how to use technology to create materials. Isn't it amazing? Sometimes graduating and being a teacher s

Film Review

Hello my fellows! Today, I want to talk about making a film review in wiki briefly. Wiki is a page in which you can give information about anything. This page can be edited by anyone. And our teacher has asked us to review a movie in pairs. I have done this with my friend Rabia TUĞLU and you can find her blog by clicking here. You can find the gif  here! Also, you can find our review by clicking here ! We have reviewed the movie called A Clockwork Orange. It's about an experiment which tries to turn bad people into good ones by showing them some movies. Don't forget to have a look on it. Dear fellows, unfortunately, it's all for today. Thank you for reading. Please don't forget to leave your comment below. Have a nice day!

Education Through Podcasts!

Image
Hello my dear fellows ! Two weeks ago, we have learned about podcasts in our Educational Technologies course. That's why today I am going to talk about podcast and my experience of making a podcast. Firstly let's talk about what podcast is. Podcast is an audio file that can be used for various purposes. So, we can use it for educational purposes, as well. Teachers, themselves, can record it or make their students record it. For the source of the image click here ! In this class, our teacher has wanted us to make the podcast. She has offered us three kinds of podcasts and made us choose it. I have chosen the one I can do individually. In this one, we are wanted to come up with an idea that can change the world and record it. It should be 60 seconds (exactly). Before recording it, I have chosen the app I am going use to make a podcast. I have chosen the Voki because it is easy to use and has special visuals to use in the video file. Then I have written a text th

A Miraculous Web Feed for Blog Readers! RSS

Hello my dear fellows! Today I am going to talk about a very useful web feed and two applications recommended by our teacher Gökçe Tiftik in my Educational Technologies course. Web feed's name is RSS. It means Really Simple Syndication. It really is a useful web feed for learning about new updates of the blogs and websites you follow. Thanks to this feed, you don't have to stop by all blogs you follow. This feed brings all those updates to you. For the source of the image, click here ! I am using this feed with the application named Feed Reader. Its aim is to find RSS feed on the blogs and websites and make you be able to subscribe them. Generally, I use it to keep up with the updates of the blogs I follow. It can be downloaded into your computer. It has a simple design and is not complex for users who are new to this application. For the source, click here ! I also have found out, while searching about this application, that Feedreader is one of the firs
