SPILL THE TEA 🍵?

Hello everyone!


Today I'd like to tell you about my first experience making a podcast!📟 You can click on the link below to listen our podcast and if you wanna join for our next ep don't hesitate to comment ☝️☕️

SPILL THE TEA EVERYONE

My classmate İrem and I made a Vox-Pop style podcast. We asked 10 of our friends about their “most preferred coffee orders on a daily basis”. The answers were quite diverse; it was great to see that everyone has their own taste in coffee! We especially had a lot of fun adding the sound effects and interacting with people.

Although the process was fun, editing the sounds and putting everything together was a bit challenging. It took time and patience for everything to be harmonious and fluid, but the end result was definitely worth it.

As a pre-service teacher I think that such practices can be very effective in the language classroom. Instead of just explaining listening and speaking skills, it can be a much more effective learning method for students to prepare their own podcasts. Such projects both allow students to follow their own learning processes and increase their self-confidence in speaking English.

Overall, this project was a very valuable experience for me and I can't wait to use such activities in my classes when I teach in the future!

PSA ABOUT DEPRESSION

Image
 Hello everybody!! 😸😸 Today I am going to share our project making a ''Digital Story'' with my group members, İrem and Halil. There were three options for us to choose and we wanted to do a PSA to bring awareness about depression rates in our country, Türkiye, because I think many people just ignore it or assume that it is a simple illness that everyone may go through.  What difficulties did I run into while making the PSA? Actually, my part was pretty easy compared to other members, I think. I was a narrator and did research to use the information about the rates of depression in Türkiye. However, there wasn't that much information in the near years; that was a shock for me because depression is prevalent among many teenagers and adults. Would I be using this for my students in the future? I think it is a great opportunity for learners to gain understanding about digital literacy about video/text/audio. Editing, combining photos or videos, voice recording, etc., ...

Hello again everyone ! Today I am going to share my experience which is making... an INFOGRAPHIC ✐. Our task was creating an infographic about Legal & Ethical issues in technology use. I needed to choose one of the sub-topics and I chose ''Cyberbullying''. Actually design process was really hard for me to complete because I've never done a project like this before. However, I think I did a great job for my first time doing an infographic. You can click the link in below to see my work!! Infographic about Cyberbullying So how was the process of making infographic for me? It was a process that both educational and challenging for me. The hardest part was being able to present complex information simply and effectively. It took me a time to create a design that would capture the reader's attention by using a balance of images and text. I think infographics can be a great benefit in the English classroom. For students, visually-rich materials can help them under...
