Nehir's Educational Technology Blog

Hello everybody. I hope you are fine.  As always, I'm with you this week. But today's post is going to be a little emotional. Because this is actually a farewell post. I really don't understand how the whole period went by. I shared something new with you every week. There were tasks that I had a lot of difficulty with, there were tasks that I had a lot of fun with, but most importantly, I really learned a lot in all of them.  This year, we did both group homework and individual work. These assignments taught us both solidarity, individuality and working together.  The homework that helped me the most so far was the wiki assignment. I will also use this when teaching. But the homework I had the most fun doing was making a magazine cover.This semester's educational technology course has been one of the most useful courses for me. Because when we combined our teaching skills with 21st century skills, I learned the most innovative things in this course. When I teach in the...

Hello everyone, welcome to my blog. I hope you are having a good day.   This week we were asked to create a digital story. I also became partners with my friends İrem and Defne. We were given three options in this regard. After some discussion about this topic, we chose PSA. We also determined which subject we would like to create a story about by exchanging ideas. We watched a few sample videos from the internet to get ideas and decided to make a video about animal cruelty. We found copyright-free photos and prepared a text. Then we recorded our voice and Defne prepared a video for us. It was a very useful and fun task indeed. I love group work in general. I think this assignment will be very useful when I become a teacher in the future. It was an assignment that we used technology well as required by the 21st century. By adapting the digital story to education, it contributes a lot to the learning of the students.   I am attaching the video we made below and my fr...

Hello everyone, I'm here again. I did something really interesting this week. I've read a lot of magazines before, but I never knew how magazine covers are made. In Educational Technologies class this week, we were asked to make a magazine cover. I'm really excited because I love this kind of creative content. I chose to design a fashion magazine cover. While doing this, I used the Canva app. I can say that it is truly a life-saving application. I had a lot of fun making it and I was torn between many options. I will also use this app when I become a teacher. For now, I preferred to design it as a fashion magazine, but when I become a teacher, I will adapt it to educational applications. I leave my magazine cover below. I hope you like it. Take care, see you soon.💖
