     My First Infographic
 
     Hi everyone! Our teacher assigned us a task about infographics. We did infographics about certain topics which are plagiarism, copyright and fair use, safety and privacy, netiquette, and cyberbullying. I did an infographic about cyberbullying which is one of the most important problems of today's young generation, in my opinion. While designing my infographic, I used Canva since it does not require too much effort to use it and Canva is pretty practical. I struggled a bit to imagine a theme that reflects the topic of cyberbullying but solved it fast enough. Infographics are actually good ways to convey messages about related topics because they are not normal and simple texts. In infographics, there are lots of visual aids that attract readers' interest so that readers can read them without being bored. In that way, these infographics are suitable for classrooms, especially in English classes. Because students can have difficulty in focusing on long texts without being distracted. So, it will be very useful for teachers to use infographics to share information with students. On the other hand, students can make infographics to make them express themselves in a better way. Because infographics are fun to create. In addition, infographics reflect students' imagination. So overall, we should benefit from infographics when presenting certain topics in classrooms and students should even create their own infographics.
    So, what are your opinions about infographics? 

    Take care, See You!

An Advanced Teaching Technique: Flipped Classroom Approach

      Hello There! Today, I will be talking about an unusual teaching method that we covered in my last class. This uncommon method is the flipped classroom approach! Unlike the traditional classroom model where teachers lecture during class and students complete assignments at home, a flipped classroom offers a teaching context where students only come to class to complete their assignments with their teacher while watching their courses online wherever they want. Students first access interactive online content, videos, and readings provided by their teachers before diving deeper levels of their topics. The flipped classroom has many benefits and positive outcomes. Active engagement is one of the key benefits of flipped classrooms since the whole lesson time is dedicated to activities. Also, a flipped classroom offers a personalized learning environment as students can watch their lessons wherever they can and as much as they want.       So, in our a...

Blending Reality With The Real World in Teaching!?

 Hello there! Today, I will be talking about extraordinary teaching material. The material that I am talking about is augmented and virtual reality technology. Unlike the traditional teaching context in which it is difficult for students to engage with materials, this technology goes beyond the teaching limits! By using AR/VR technology, students can explore and examine new places, materials, objects, and even cities by themselves! It is an amazing feature for both students and teachers when it comes to the efficiency and quality of lessons. Using AR and VR in lessons has many benefits but has some disadvantages. When integrated with teaching materials, this technology makes lessons more engaging for students and allows students to explore places, and objects they have learned in the classroom. But for disadvantages, not all students can have a device that is connected to the internet. So this technology can only be implemented in certain classrooms for now. For our assignment, we ...

Using Generative AI Tools in Lessons

      Hello there! Today, I will introduce my last assignment for this term! In my last task, as a group, we created a worksheet that is integrated with generative AI tools. As you know AI tools are getting more and more common among students and teachers. Generative AI tools can be both beneficial and detrimental for us, depending on how we use them. Nowadays, it is very prevalent among students to use AI tools like ChatGPT for assignments and homework. This situation affects students' learning progress negatively. So, it is important to know how to use AI tools as a teacher, and also we have to inform our students about this topic. If we want to benefit from a generative AI tool in our lessons, we should clearly explain our topic and our aims to students. So, we designed a worksheet where students use generative AI tools to create a story based on 3 different genres. First, we introduced the tasks. Then, students completed the tasks according to the instructions by usin...
