sbrcndmr learns E.T

      This time, I'm not going to start my post with, "Hello again!". Today, I'm going to say goodbye. I have finished all of my tasks for this term and my last task is to say goodbye to you. It has been a fantastic term, I have learned numerous things for my future teaching career. Corpora based teaching, flipped classroom teaching, augmented reality, Webquest... They all will help me in the future for sure. Also, in this modern age digital materials for teaching are crucial to adapt to new era. These are the most beneficial sides of this term for me.     However, I think this course not only has positive sides but also some weaknesses too and I have some recommendations. For example, the task which we were supposed to create augmented reality projects was excessively difficult. No one could find a properly working application and everyone had to resort to alternatives. In a way, it has a benefit for us too, it improved our problem solving skills. But still, it was s

      Hey! Seems like it is correct that every good thing has an end... This is our final project for this term, after I'll publish it too, probably I'm going to disappear.     Our last task of this term was to create a Webquest about a project we selected from the coursebook which was given to us. Yüksel and I(don't forget to visit his blog too by clicking on his name.) chose the project 7, preparing a movie poster.     We used QuestGarden (click on it to visit) for creating a technology-enhanced project. It enables teachers to create a Webquest so easily. We first introduced the task, then we mentioned about the task in detail on the "task" section. After that, we told the steps to follow on the "process" tab and then we explained our rubric on "evaluation" section.      It is ready to be visited now. You can use the link below to reach. Until my farewell post, take great care!                                      http://questgarden.com/208/

     Hi there! We're coming closer to the end of the semester, again. But before we disappear, we created an augmented reality project. It is simply, and literally, about augmenting the reality through technology. Selected items seem 3D and real in a video after the target image is triggered by scanning. Our task was to introduce a city with its cuisine and destinations. My friend Yüksel and I(You can click on his name to see his blog) selected Alberta, Canada for our assignment. We introduced various destinations, a museum and a popular food from there. Also, we created a handout for you to follow the steps and be able to scan the images to see the videos. We used Canva to create the handout, and UniteAR for augmenting. (By clicking on them you can visit their sites.)     It was the hardest assignment this term for us. There were lots of challenges in front of us. For example, all of us, had problems with finding a correctly-working application. After a couple of tries, we foun
