Flipped Classroom on Vocabulary Teaching

-
Hey everyone welcome to my blog again 🫶🏻

 This week we were tasked with preparing an activity called “flipped classroom.” The term "flipped classroom" refers to an educational approach in which conventional teaching techniques are inverted or "flipped". In this method the students get prior knowledge about the topic in their regular classes. After that they engage with instructional content such as video lectures. Classroom time is used for interactive discussions and activities. With this method teachers can focus on students’ individual needs without taking too much of the classroom time. Flipped classrooms also make it possible for students to enhance their self-learning skills. In my opinion, this method is very beneficial for both the students and the teachers.  We were assigned to create a flipped teaching material for an EFL classroom. Our target audience was 5th grade students. Together with my group friends Çağla and Gülce, we chose the topic called Movies from Meb's 5th grade book. We prepared a word learning activity. While doing this, we thought that the Canva application was the most suitable and prepared our slide from this application. Çağla prepared our slide. Gülce and I also contributed to the events. We recorded our voices and created several interactive activities. I think that this task we have prepared is very useful for our teaching life. We used technology by intertwining it in a beneficial way in education. This task challenged us in some places, but it was an assignment from which you learned a lot. I can't wait to use this information when I become a teacher. 





Thanks for reading. 

See you our next class. 🩷

Hello everyone, we have come to the end of the semester. This blogpost is a bit emotional for me because we have left another era behind. Current Issues in ELT was a course I definitely enjoyed I had difficulties in the tasks we did this semester and experienced situations that I had difficulty understanding. But it proved that this lesson taught me a lot. I really liked about this course was that I got to prepare materials not as a student but as a teacher candidate instead. I will definitely use what I learned in this course when I become a teacher in the future. The AR/VR integrated material was my favorite one because I like designing it and found it interesting to experience AR/VR. I had a lot of fun doing this task. The most difficult and least fun thing I had to do was the corpus-based teaching material because it took me a long time to do this task and it took me a long time to understand how to do it. I don't think this course needs to be improved because it is already nic...

Vox-Pop Assignment

Hello everyone, I hope you are well. Today I am here with a new article. In today's blog post, I will talk about our last task in the educational technologies course. This week we were asked to create a podcast. Firstly we were expected to choose a topic. My friend İrem and I choose“If you could spend time with a fictional character, who would it be and why?” and created a podcast about it. We have created a dialogue and record our voice. We both expressed our own opinions on this subject and asked 10 more people. I made a podcast for the first time. We had a lot of fun even though we had some minor problems while making it. I plan to use the podcast in my professional life in the future. I would also like to thank my friend İrem, I think we did a good job. I hope you like it too. Take care of yourselves. See you in other articles. This is the link to our podcast, you should check it out. Vocaroo'da görüntüle >> This is the link to İrem's blog. https://iremselt...

MY FIRST WIKI ASSIGNMENT

Hello everyone, welcome to my blog. I hope you are fine.  We needed to do a movie review with a friend for our Educational Technologies class this week. Me and my friend Okan also chose The Truman Show. More precisely, I suggested watching it, and he accepted. We both liked it very much and were impressed. This movie made us both think a lot and question our own lives. Although I don't normally like these kinds of movies, I loved this movie. It's my first time writing a movie review. I also used Wiki for the first time. In short, this event caused us to socialize, use a new application for the first time, and write a review for the first time. Especially I think that learning how to use Wiki has added a lot to both of us. Wiki makes a lot of sense for many people to join and do something together. It is very useful for students to use it for information sharing, especially in the classroom environment. I hope to use the Wiki more in the future. Although it is fun to work alone,...
