Hi everyone!        This week I come up with a creative and useful idea which help you in your both education and educator life. It is called a "flipped classroom". In this concept like its name, everything is flipped. The houses turn into a real classroom thanks to the created videos on this concept. The students watch the video you have sent them before the lesson and what you are going to do in the classroom is practicing what they learn by themselves with this creative video. It is a great idea to practice and consolidate what a teacher wants to teach the students. However, it has some troublesome parts like some of the students may not watch the video and cannot participate in practice in the classroom. But still, I love this idea. Therefore, I and my partner Rıdvan Burak Öztürk created a flipped classroom video which we hope to inspire you.       We have used animaker   to make this video. Creating such a video was a great experi...

   Hi everyone! This week I come with such an efficient and creative idea in  language learning/teaching that I am sure that you will love it. As you know in today's world we should teach  students how to learn instead of teaching some information by sticking to a curriculum, however, knowing how to  learn is more important than teaching to someone or learning from someone.     Let me talk about what this task is. This task is called the language awareness task which includes lots of  corpora analyzing and data-driven learning. This task is based on PPP ( Presentation, Practice, Produce) that  enables students to both learn by themselves without a teacher by discovering the recommended corpus and  successively deducing and making the given worksheet by themselves or with group/pair from time to time. I will share that task's recipe with you.  1) Presentation Part: As a teacher, you should present the topic that you want to te...

            As you know, last semester was an efficient term for me because I have learned a lot of things about language teaching and how to create a sufficient material. To me this term is a contuniation of the last year's course.  Language teaching and learning are long processes which need hardwork, curosity, and contuniation.     This term I am looking forward to learn how to create more sufficient and inductive materials that I have done before. I am happy to take this course again which enables me being together with you with  more developed and creative content works. I will try to do my best. I hope my studies and some  language teaching materials which are created by me and my pair would be helful for you. We are together again! 

Hi everyone!   During all the semester I have been tried to give some informations about  21st century learning   to you and now we came to end of the semester and I want to share my thoughts and feelings about this term and being with you. To be honest, I didn't think that this course would contribute me such informations about integration of  technology and 21st century learning. During the term I worked on many project not only  individually but also with groups. Me and my friends discovered many different tools to make education funnier and easier. You know the tools we worked on it from my old posts but believe me there are more than those...      This course contributed me such things that would be helpful for my future students. Before the course I didn't meet with almost any tools that we used. However, after this class I learned that there were many different tools for  teaching a language.I did works on many different a...

Hello everyone!   Today I am going to share my last work for this term with you. This time I want you to talk about the tools that I learned through this semester. There were many web tools to use and create works for you but I choose some of them that whic I love most.  First of all I want to start with Wiki Page. Wiki is a tool that enables people to study in the same platform on the Internet from different places. It is like a book that has pages. You can work individually or with a group. Every member of your group can edit your team work. However it has many adventageous, if you don't use it carefully, everything can turns into a disaster. Because people who can reach your work is not only you, also people who work in the different pages of the  same book. They can reach your page and can delete any information that you don't want to lose. So, if you use it, please be careful and enjoy!! Second,  Canva enables you to create any graphic that you w...
