AR/VR Integrated Teaching Materials

Hello everyone.

This time, I prepared AR/VR integrated material for the Current Issues course. Actually, this was a group work. However, since I couldn’t find anyone to work with, I prepared it on my own. I think this is better. Because when you work as a group, you don’t do everything because the work is divided. However, when you work alone, you have the chance to apply and learn everything.

In this study, I chose a foreign city and prepared a material about two landmarks, a museum and the famous food of that place. Students are asked to obtain information about the topics and answer questions by going to the links provided with QR codes in this material. I both enjoyed and learned a lot while preparing this material. First of all, it feels very good to produce something on your own. Secondly, learning how to prepare a design and having the opportunity to apply it to other areas is a very important gain.

My Movie Review of Interstellar

We were asked to make a movie analysis by creating a wiki page for a task given to us in the educational technologies course. This was supposed to be a two-person team effort. I did this assignment with Eray Sezer, you can find his blog here . First, we decided which movie we would review. After deciding on the movie, we watched the movie separately. Then we divided the tasks. I wrote part of the review and Eray wrote the other part. Finally, we checked each other's writing, shared our ideas, and completed the task by making final corrections. I find creating a wiki page as a team effort is both fun and beneficial. First of all, since being able to keep up with teamwork is a very important quality, this task was extremely useful in terms of developing this feature. Second, doing a writing task with someone requires being open to criticism, which is a must-have for a prospective teacher. You can check out the review here . Thanks for reading, take care!! ...

Corpus-based Teaching Material

Hello everyone, Today, I would like to tell you about the Corpus-based Teaching Material I prepared for the current issues in Elt course. Actually, this was a group work and we prepared it together with Melis (click her name to access to her blog). The main purpose of preparing this material is to help students learn a grammar topic or vocabulary on their own using corpus data. Our target audience was secondary school students and we focused on teaching the difference between since and for as a grammatical topic. Thanks to this material, students will be able to see since and for in sample sentences, identify their differences, and finally reinforce the subject by doing relevant exercises. The study material consists of four steps. In the first step, students' background information is questioned and they are given relevant examples. In the second step, students are asked to enter https://www.lextutor.ca/conc/eng/, which is a corpus data collection, search for relevan...

AI-integrated teaching material

Hello everyone. Today I will talk about the final project of the Current Issues course. As I mentioned in the title, this time I prepared a study about artificial intelligence. The material I prepared is a writing task consisting of three stages. Accordingly, students are asked to write a paragraph and have it checked by artificial intelligence and receive feedback from it. In this way, it is aimed for students to learn how to use artificial intelligence functionally. In this period when artificial intelligence applications enter every part of our lives, students will definitely use them. This cannot be prevented. However, it is up to us, educators, to teach our students how to use artificial intelligence beneficially. You can access the material here .
