AR - INTEGRATED TEACHING MATERIAL

-
Hello everyone,  This week our task was creating an AR integrating teaching material, and I worked with my friends Perihan Bozdağ, Meryem Dilara Demirkaynak, and Eda Karaca. First, we chose the option most suitable for us, then chose our country which was France, and started working. For this project, we decided on Canva because it is one of the most user-friendly apps. After, selecting the places in France, everyone searched for 360 videos and created QR codes for these videos. Finally, we wrote our "information and instructions" and "answer the questions" sections, in my opinion, this task was the most enjoyable task of this term. I will definitely use AR-integrated teaching materials when I start teaching, I believe they are really beneficial and fun for students. This is the link to our task , this is the  link to the ASSURE plan of our task   and finally, these are the links to the blog posts of my friends  Meryem Dilara Demirkaynak ,  Eda Karaca , and...

CORPUS- BASED TEACHING MATERIAL

-
Hello there! This term, our first task was to create corpus-based teaching material. We were required to choose a corpus and design teaching material and a lesson plan based on it. We chose CorpusMate because it is more handy. For the topic, we decided on "Should vs. Must". After selecting the topic, we developed the materials, determined the activities to include, and ensured that students could easily use CorpusMate with our instructions on the worksheet. Once the material were complete, we started to plan the lesson using the ASSURE model and facilitated various lesson plan templates. Because we created this material and lesson plan for an ideal classroom there are potential challenges that can happen in a real classroom if our material is implemented. I want to write about them. One major problem could be the lack of adequate internet access or the unavailability of electronic devices like computers. In our country, many high schools do not have the technological infrastr...

FLIPPED LANGUAGE CLASSROOM VIDEO CREATING TASK

-
This week, our task was to create a flipped classroom video. Fatma Reyhan Tuğ, Serra Bozkurt, and I worked together on this project. First, we decided on the type of video we would create. We concluded that an animated lesson video would be the best option for us. Then, we chose the application we would use. Unfortunately, we selected Animaker without realizing that it has many cons that made it very difficult to use. This application made the task twice as challenging as it needed to be. It froze so many times that we had to record the same content more than twice. It even deleted some of our work, forcing us to recreate it. It was not user-friendly at all, and I will never use this application again. Despite these difficulties, I learned important lessons from this task, which I plan to apply when I start teaching. A flipped classroom model can be highly beneficial if implemented effectively. However, this was, by far, the most difficult task I have encountered during my three years ...
