FIRST ATTEMPT TO CREATE A MATERIAL

Hi guys!
I hope you all healthy and safe. Today I will talk about corpus and language awareness tasks.

Firstly, let's discuss the term "corpus". Corpus is a compilation of written texts on a specific subject. Corpus is a convenient tool for creating materials and also for language awareness tasks.

Furthermore, I have created a language awareness task in line with the term "corpus". Language awareness can be stated as how we use words in our learning materials.
Me and my friend Melisa, have created worksheets for our students. Our aim is to compose language awareness.

First of all, we have prepared an analysis part. We didn't clearly stated what are the rules etc. We simply gave the words "talk" and "say". This is because, we want our students discover the rules on their own. That's exactly what a language awareness is. After analysis process, they will write sentences in line with what they have understood from analysis activity.

Here are the worksheets me and my classmate Melisa have created. You can analyse them and if you have any question you can ask us any time you want!

SEE YOU! TAKE CARE!

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
