Being A Student In This Century.





   Hi everyone! Today we are going to talk about learning in 21st century. As you all know we are in a technological age and students and teachers should  keep up with the new innovations.In 21st century teaching techniques are so varied and sophisticated that not only students but also teachers can improve their learning styles by benefitting from that.
   
   There are lots of key subjects to talk about. Firstly, Let’s mention about ‘’Critical Thinking’’.We all need to be critical thinkers to think independently about any topic. Critical thinking provides us to think creatively and brainstorm.By this technique,  one can evaluate the other people’s point of views. Secondly,  we need to have ‘’Information, Media, and Technology Skills’’. As we are in a technological age, we need to catch up with the innovations. We should be analyzing media without difficulty. On the other hand, we should access and evaluate the information effectively and also we have to use this information accurately and creatively when it is needed to be used.

   To sum up, in our century, there are lots of qualifications we must have. You need to improve your teaching and learning techniques according to the key subjects of 21st century. I recommend you to watch this video and find out what’s going on in educational system in the 21st century. I hope you enjoy this post!

Perfect Way for Creativity, Podcast!

  Hi everyone! Today we will talk about  ‘’Podcasting’’. Podcasting can be used in various areas.But we will focus on ‘’education-based podcasting’’. We can use podcasts in our class.It can enhance students’ creativity,speaking skills and pronounciations. As an university student I made my own podcast. To be honest, It was really hard for me to do so. Because talking on my own in a really silent atmosphere made me feel weird. But when I began to talk about the topic, It began to go easy.  I think using podcast in the class is quite beneficial. Students can share their ideas about everything in a creative way. They can get used to using technology as well. If I will be a teacher in the future, I am going to use podcast surely. Because, technology involves education more day by day. As a teacher candidate, we all need to be aware of technological developments. Furthermore, ‘’Podcast’’ is an important part of education.On the other hand,I wonder what you think about podcasting

TELL ME YOUR STORY!

Hi everyone! It’s me again. This week we are going to talk about a new term. It is called ‘’Digital Story Telling’’. Digital Story Telling is a creative way that gets students involved in language learning. By means of this tool, students can enhance their creativity and also they can use the language actively.On the other hand, thanks to this activity, students can work collaboratively. There are several methods to do ‘’Digital Story Telling’’. One is ‘’PSA’’. PSAs are short, “non-commercial” announcements prepared to provide information to the public . Me and my friend Zeynep used PSA to tell our story. But there are many choices you can choose to tell your story. For example, you can create your own fictional story! It may be really fun to do that. Let’s talk about our story! We wanted to focus on really big issue that occurs in Turkey. We created a PSA. It is about animal violence in Turkey. As lots of people don’t care much about animals in

This is not a Goodbye...

Hi everyone! Today I’m  gonna talk about the whole semester as a whole. Firstly,  this course really helped me to integrate in technology. We are in the 21st century and I think students from all around the world should use technology for the purpose of their educations. On the other hand, writing a blog used to be unusual thing for me. But thanks to this course, I started blogging and this was really beneficial and fun experience. With the activities and educational tools we have learnt in the class, we can be technological teachers in the future! I really liked to do different types of experiences during the term. We did podcasts, video clips etc..To be honest, maybe the only thing that I want to change about this class may be the timing. This course requires really a lot of time. Let’s talk about the thing I have loved most! In my opinion , writing a blog and having a blog on my own is really different and exciting thing for me. Every ‘’Educational Technologies’’ stu
