Goodbye!

Hello everyone. I am writing for the last time for this course.

It was a nice experience sharing what we have done with you.

I will evaluate the experience so far in this post.
 
My favorite task is AR/VR teaching material. The experience was new to both of us, I think. It was fun. My least favorite one is flipped learning teaching material. I hated recording my voice over and over, and I don't think it was as fun as other assignments.
 
The course was easy in terms of subjects we have covered. They were not challenging to understand. But the assignments were a bit hard when you consider that we have done lots of work.
 
About the strengths and weaknesses of the course, I can say that the topics in general are good in general. For its weakness, it was boring for me.
 
I don't have an idea on how to improve it, actually. It was good overall. But having to do assignments every week (draft and final versions) was exhausting. But there isn't any way to adjust them in the syllabus, I guess.
 
I would tell the students who would take this course next year: Do everything on time. Schedule a certain time every week with your group members. It is easier that way. Read the instructions very carefully and read them twice, in my opinion. It makes you understand and come up with an activity idea.
 
This course contributed to my professional development in a few ways. I learned about many tools. Moreover, I learned how to make a material using those tools. I learned how to work as a group. I learned that I can design materials, it increased my self-esteem.

Thank you for accompanying me and reading my blogs. Take care of yourself, goodbye!

Creating an instructional video for the flipped instruction

Resim
Hi guys! I am back with another assignment. I hope you benefit from what you will read. This assignment is based on 'flipped classroom approach'. You may have never heard about it if you are from Turkey. The flipped classroom is a modern teaching method where the traditional learning structure is reversed. Instead of learning the topics in class and doing homework at home, students are introduced to the lesson content before class often through videos, readings, or online resources. Then, during class time, they focus on practicing, discussing, and applying what they've learned. It sounds different in a good way but it has its own advantages and disadvantages. One of the advantages is that it gives students more control over their learning. This is expecially helpful for students who need more time to understand the topic. Another advantage is that class time becomes more productive. Instead of passively listening, students find opportunity to ask questions. As for the disa...

Corpus-Based Material Design and Lesson Plan

Hello everyone! This is my first time posting something; actually, the introduction doesn’t count. I hope you enjoy and learn something after reading this post.   I will talk about my group homework and explain the process.   We prepared a lesson plan based on the ASSURE model and a corpus-based teaching material. You probably don't know about these terms. Let me explain to you.   The ASSURE model is a handy guide for planning lessons that really connect with students. It stands for  Analyze learners, State objectives, Select media and materials, utilize media and materials, require learner participation, and evaluate and revise.  In simple terms, it helps teachers design lessons that fit their students’ needs, keep them engaged, and make sure everything runs smoothly.  A corpus is a large collection of real-life texts, like books, conversations, and articles, that helps us study how language is actually used in everyday life. And COCA (Corpus of...

AI-integrated Teaching Material

Hello everyone! I am back with the last assignment of this term: AI-integrated teaching material.   In this assignment, I worked with the same people as my previous ones. We made phone calls. For the material, we decided on an app called Magic School, which we were introduced to last year. We wanted our students to interview a celebrity they like. We designed our material on Canva. First, we designed a page where we prepare our students for the activity by asking questions. Then, in the next two pages, we explained the activity, gave suggestions, and dedicated the second page for students to reflect on their experience. In the last page, we wanted them to evaluate the app and share their experiences. Lastly, we made a lesso plan for the activity based on ASSURE model. Here is the link for the material designed on Canva. Here is the link for the lesson plan . Thank you for reading. See you in the goodbye post!
