Goodbye, Everyone!

Hello, my dear friends! I've come here to give some sad news...I'm leaving once again. 😓 

    As this course comes to an end, I want to take a moment to reflect and say goodbye to all my fellow learners and followers. This course has been an exciting journey in my education journey, and I’ve learned so much about integrating digital tools effectively into lesson plans just like how I've learn from Gökçe teacher's course. 

    One of the best parts of this course, in my opinion, was how personal it was and how we can use our blogs in our CVs in the future. Writing these blogs and creating these materials also helped me practise what we are learning in class better. But I'd say the downside to all of this was trying to understand some of the more advanced technologies and using them. I found it to be tricky sometimes as I'm not good at using computers at all..😶

    My favourite task was definitely preparing the flipped classroom teaching material with my pairs. I had so much fun with the characters I voiced, and when we showed our video to class, the teacher said, "Is the clown actually a real clown?" I couldn't help but laugh because I didn't realize jus how much I was into my role when voicing that clown. It was such a fun experience for sure.

    When it comes to my least favourite, I would say it was the AI-integrated lesson plan, as I found it to be boring. It didn't really include anything that I hadn't done before while preparing a lesson plan, and was similar to the other assignment I've made. While it was useful, I didn't enjoy it as much as the other tasks and was bored while working on it.

    If I were to give a suggestion, I'd say the more personal involvement the assignment requires, the better. And the assignments could be way more creative than they are now. One thing I'd tell the students who will take the course next year is to be creative while doing assignments and not to delete their blogs after the lessons end, as they could be useful in the future.

    Lastly, I'd say that this course helped me get better at creating lessons that use both pedagogy and technology. I believe that these learnings will be very important in my teaching journey in the future.

Until next time! See you guys soon 💜

Exploring Poetry Through AI

  Made with PicsArt Hello guys! Today tried out an AI simulation that talks and writes like Emily Dickinson, and the whole thing was way more interesting than I would have expected. The program was so realistic that some of the replies gave me chills because it almost felt like she was answering my questions while sitting right beside me. I was taken aback by how naturally it mimicked her artistry and way of speaking. This broadened my views on how AI might reshape everyday reading and how holding a conversation with a robot can actually be pretty inspiring! ────୨ৎ──── Using this AI in my work was far from flawless, though. Thinking about new questions that the bot would answer in an interesting and clear way was a hard thing for me. I think it answered best when I asked clear prompts that she can use to analyze her answer. So that caused me to ask as thoughtfully as possible. ────୨ৎ──── The writing feedback AI was good, but in my opinion, it was not enough feedback. I had to u...

Understanding Cyberbullying an Infographic

-

  Hi! I decided to make an infographic about cyberbullying to be able to raise awareness about the issue and hopefully help people who are facing cyberbullying even now.  I created this infographic on Canva and used various symbols to make the subject as easy to understand as possible. (●'◡'●) Cyberbullying is one of the most important issues in the modern era and forces kids or even adults to feel scared about using social media. These days, it has become usual to see people impersonating other people on the internet to frame them or get recognition by using their pictures. People also think that if they don't share their own pictures on the internet, they can just say anything and not be found out, but that is simply not true. While searching for this infographic, I noticed many websites that help people who are victims of cyberbullying. I think that this infographic can help learners in the English classroom simply by how easy to understand the examples are and the fact ...

The Making of “The Wallet in the Forest”

This image was created by ChatGPT   For this podcast assignment, we worked on a short mystery story we named  “The Wallet in the Forest.”  The objective was to create a 90-second fictional podcast, complete with many sound effects, a dramatic climax, and a satisfying conclusion. In our story, a girl named Sara makes an unusual discovery during a class field trip to the forest: a wallet. What starts off as a strange yet mild surprise spirals into the frightening tale of a robbery gone wrong, bizarre men masquerading as police officers, and a woman who has vanished, leaving only her cat and a pair of earrings behind.  . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁  It was enjoyable, even though it was somewhat challenging sometimes. To me, determining the genre and plot took a lot of work. We wanted the story to be suspenseful yet manageable in terms of time. A lost wallet and a forest setting ultimately became the story’s catalyst, and everything else followed seamlessly. I particularly enjoye...
