A Little Help of Augmented Reality

Hi everyone!

Have you ever heard about a thing called Augmented Reality (AR)? It's kind of a technology that builds a bridge between your world and a digital world. There are many spaces where augmented reality is used; however, I'm gonna talk about AR in teaching. Last week, we learned about an app called HP Reveal. This app helps you to add some 3D graphics in the real world by means of your smartphone's camera. I think it can be very useful in teaching, so there is an example of mine. Enjoy...

ALL TOGETHER | Nearpod

Hi everyone! I'm just going to sink into the topic. Today, we'll talk about Nearpod which is such an improved type of teaching devices. By Nearpod, you can create classes, interact with your students, and present your topics there. However, Nearpod has much more to give, it gives you the chance of using VR without any other website, or device. Also, you can add resources and share them with your students. Additionally, Nearpod enables you to make live and formative, ongoing assessments or enables your students to make self-assessments. There are many other things that you could do by using Nearpod, I suggest you to have a look at it. In a nutshell, Nearpod includes what constructivism suggests applying and autonomy requires to have. I'm sure that I will use Nearpod as a mean of teaching when I start teaching. Here, you can find more detailed information: https://nearpod.com/ Also, you can watch this video to have an idea:

Today, we don’t like anything that brings the need of vomiting, also anything that is boring won’t help you to learn something because your motivation will be much lower each day. In a nutshell, please try it and inform me on your thoughts. Click Here to reach Duolingo. Secondly, Memrise would be a good choice to work on. Memrise simply the same thing with Duolingo but there is one thing that made my mind blown. That thing is the camera detection system of Memrise. You can hold your p...

CREATE YOUR CANVA!

Hi everyone! Have you ever heard about Canva? It is an application that helps you with pre-made drafts of different kinds of cards. You can use these cards in order to fulfill different purposes but today I want to mention its use in education. Canva can be used in education while studying special days and holidays of a country, creating brochures, or you can give your students reading lists and they create a summary of a book by using different photos and they can present their cards in class. You can see an example of mine above. I have created a Canva in the name of a Turkish Holiday. Click Here to Go Canva!
