Hi everyone, in this post I will mention about my podcasting process and my feelings about it. The first thing we did was forming a story then recording our voices on a suitable platform. Then we found a platform that we can add more sound effects to our recording. About podcasting; I think it’s something useful in terms of students’ recognition of their voices and pronunciation. Also by podcasting they work together. As a task wasn’t a difficult one but finding the suitable platform was a bit challenging. https://m.soundcloud.com/k-eniskahraman/podcast-1 Kadir Enls Kahraman  and I worked together while creating this podcast.

Hi everyone, in this post I will write a statement which includes my ideas and feelings about teaching with the help of technology and share with you.I hope you enjoy with this statement and utilise from it.  In 21st century technology usage is so common that there is almost  no area that does not use technology. And of  course for educational purposes it is used as well.

To sum up with the CALL understanding and projects learning a new language is easier than before thanks to mainly computers, generally technology.

What makes 21st century learning interesting and different from the other centuries learning systems? In the 21st century new and more developed understanding of learning came to existence. 21st century learning mainly focus on 4c skills which are communication, collobaration, critical thinking and creativity.But of course developing these skills are not something easy.To develop these skills lots of thing should be changed in classes such as teacher's role, student's role, class activities, understanding of teaching and at all. In the 21st century learning, classes should be student based. Students should take role for lesson flows and teachers should not have all the controls. Instead of that they should be an organizer and instructor. Another point class activities should not focus only isolted skiils which are listening, speaking, writing and reading. Activities should aim to devolop presentational skills and interpersonal skills because these skil...
