A Better and More Modern Way of Homework

Hi everyone!

It's been a week since I uploaded my last post. I hope you're doing well.

Today, I'm going to talk about a much modern and better way of giving homework. You may have heard about Seesaw before. It is a website which allows you to give homework or do activities with your students easily. We can say that it is a social media for teachers and students. With Seesaw, you can easily follow your students' performance and progression. So as to give an example, I created a 2nd-grade activity.

A Bunch of Tools | 21st Century Skills Training

Hey friends! How are you? How was your week? I hope you did fine and ready to learn more about 21 st Century Skills. This week’s training was all about tools that we can use in our teaching process and work life. I’ve found some of them really interesting and helpful, and I will share them with you further in this post. Embed from Getty Images At the beginning of the session, our teacher Melda Yılmaz presented us with 6 different tools and showed how to use them properly. The first tool was Edpuzzle, which is a website that allows you to add questions and notes to a video and make it interactive. I think that this tool is very useful in teaching, especially with asynchronous learning. Also, this website gives you a chance to mark your students’ work. What we all wish for!  The second tool we’ve talked about was Animoto. Animoto is an online tool that helps you to create different and interesting videos without putting too much effort i...

I FEEL ENGLIGHTENED! | 2ND WEEK OF 21ST CENTURY SKILLS TRAINING

Hello friends! It’s been a week and half since the last post of mine. There has been quite busyness in my life but there is one thing that I enjoy in all busyness which is 21st Skills Training Course. In the 2nd week of this training, we have touched into two main topics which are collaboration skills and English as a global phenomena. In the first section of the class, we have focused on collaboration skills. At the beginning of the session, our teacher Melda Yılmaz introduced us to Linoit which is a website that allows you to create boards with sticky papers. In our session we used it to create stories. As groups, we were given certain words to chose from, then with my friends created a story using those words. At the end, we shared them as sticky notes, on our class board, with class mates. Secondly, in the same session, we were given a murder puzzle, again in groups. In breakout rooms, we started to discuss about the murder mystery. One by one, figuring the ti...

An Important Point to be made! | 21st Century Skills Training

Hello friends! It's been a week and I'm here again with 21st Century Skills Training. This week was very busy because of mid-terms and homework. However, 21st Century Skills Training made my week. This weeks focus was on copyright issues, licensing, cyber security and being critical with digital information and media. Embed from Getty Images For the first session, we focused on copyright, licensing and cyber security. Do you know that every work of your intelligence can and should be copyrighted to your own name? Also, you have to act according to copyright terms of a work in order to use it and these terms have renge of differences from work to work. Another thing that must be known in terms of copyright is that teachers can use a work partially if they are making use of that work for teaching materials. On the other hand, we learned about how to get a license for others' work. All those information were useful in terms of knowing how to use the data that we found a...
