FINAL POST

Hi my pity reader,

  It's hard to believe that we've come to the end of the semester. It was a very beneficial and permanent term for me. I created lots of different and purposeful materials with my friends collaboratively. Thanks to the guidance of our beloved instructor, Gökçe Kurt, this term turned into absolute productivity. First of all, the easiest thing about the course and the tasks is the proper instructions given by the teacher. However, I experienced some difficulties while preparing the tasks, such as time limitations. My favorite task is the flipped-classroom teaching video, although I had the hardest moments of my life while preparing it, because it's the task that I'll prefer to use as a teacher in the future. Indeed, I have no least favorite task, but we could have a different task other than the corpus-based task because I don't think it is so beneficial or useful.

   My suggestion to the students who will take this course next semester is that they should pay attention to it because it is one of the most important courses that they will have. As a teacher candidate, I will use all the information and tasks I have learned from that course in the future. 

 Take care of yourself for now. See you all next time:)

AI INTEGRATED MATERIAL

 Hi my pity reader,

  Today, we are going to talk about my AI-integrated material preparation adventure. Firstly, this was a group project and my group members are Hilal Uçar and Tuğba Yeşilmen. This is the age of technology, so we as teachers cannot be out of technology in education. Both teachers and students have the ability and facility to use AI in education. This task is among the most beneficial ones for me because I will use AI-integrated materials in my classes in the future.

  We created our material using Canva, and it was very innovative and laborless. We decided on our topic, which is movies, and then we decided on our AI tool, which is QuilBot. We, as teachers, prepared a three-staged task. In the pre-stage, students and the teacher will brainstorm the target topic. In the second stage, students will write a movie review about their favorite movies and take feedback from the AI tool QuilBot. In the post-stage, students will reflect on the AI tool that they have used.

PREPARING AR/VR INTEGRATED TEACHING MATERIALS

 Hi my pity reader, 

  Today, we are going to create AR/VR integrated teaching material for high school students that aims for immersive and interactive learning experiences. While preparing this assignment, me and my partners, Tuğba Yeşilmen and Hilal Uçar, worked collaboratively. We had two options to choose from: exploring a global issue or exploring a city abroad. Me and my friends chose the second one.

  The students will be able to explore Tokyo with the help of an integrated AR/VR worksheet. Thanks to that worksheet, the students will feel as if they are traveling in Tokyo, and they are virtually in Tokyo. We prefer to use Canva while preparing our worksheet. Canva is a page that is very useful and not so challenging. We chose a relevant picture and found a related 360 view video for each step. After completing the activity parts, we prepare a technology-integrated homework for our students. We, as teacher candidates, really liked this assignment, and this will be one of the most effective assignments that I have experienced.
