CREATING A DIGITAL STORY

-


 Our teacher wanted us to create a digital story and gave us 3 different choices. Me and my friend Emir Batu Özdemir decided to create a HOW TO...? video. Since we love eating. we decided to make a pesto pasta recipe. I recorded myself while making the pesto pasta and after finishing and eating the delicious food, I sent the video to my friend and then he made a voice-over for the video. 


Its challenging part was the recording process. i made some mistakes and i  had to re-make the whole process. other parts such as editing and adding voices were really fun. This digital story process can be really entertaining and educational for students.  Their speaking, critical thinking and socializing skills can be improved.

Creating an instructional video for the flipped instruction

(Photo of our flipped learning video) Hello again everyone! the reason I am writing this is because our teacher Mustafa Polat asked us to create something beneficial and pre-usable before the real-life lesson. In this blog post, I’ll discuss the flipped classroom approach and the video project my group members( Muhammed Emir Özbek , Emir Batu Özdemir, and Hüseyin Obut ) and I worked on. The flipped classroom is a method where you learn new content at home, usually through videos or reading, and use class time for activities and discussions. This approach has some great advantages for language classes. It gives you the flexibility to learn at your own pace and makes class time more interactive and focused on practice. But there are also some challenges, like needing good internet access and making sure everyone actually does the prep work before class. When it comes to its advantages, the first thing that comes to my mind is that it's a time saviour.  Teachers can use all class ho...

                                                             (Photo by: https://prajyotiniketan.edu.in ) In the spring semester of 2023-2024, we took a class named "Instructional Technologies and Material Design in English Language" given by Asst. Prof. Mustafa  Polat. In this course, we learned new ways of using technology for teaching and learning.  Before the class, i had little information on the issue of  technology integration in English language teaching. Of course, i knew some apps like Duolingo but i never thought that there are actually so many ways we can integrate technology with ELT.  I can say that this course opened my horizon in language learning and teaching. Thanks to Mustafa Polat's tasks, i experienced so many things. As an example: i  never had a blog before. Opening and designing a blog w...

        ( Mustafa kemal Atatürk (1932) by: SETA)   In this post,  i will talk about my experience of interviewing with Atatürk. The Reason i chose Atatürk to interview is actually pretty simple. Atatürk is the first person to come to my mind when i think about a historical figure who has greatly impacted history. my questions in the interview were about his ideas about his revolutions, the Ottoman Empire's mistakes in World War 1 and strategies he would have used if he were alive in World War 2. Also,  i asked him about his idealized future for Türkiye as well. He answered my questions through  Magic School's Character Chatbot ,    a website that utilizes various AI features. This tool allowed me to interact with a representation of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.  After the interview with Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, i wrote a report that includes key points and direct quotes of atatürk from our interview.  After writing the report, I used M...
