You've got a second chance! or Should I Say SECOND LIFE



  Hi everyone!

If I say that you could be whatever you want, would you believe me? Probably not.

Let me explain a little bit. Last week, our instructor told us about Second Life which is a new world (or I can say life) online. In Second Life, we have a new world and a new us. We can create an avatar with the appearance we want. In short, we can be whomever we want to be and do whatever we want to do. This app also used as an educational tool. One example of it is my instructor Tuncer Can's project which brought about a lot of attention. If you want to learn more about his work, you can check it online.


As an example, I created myself and became a vampire. Here is my selfie as a vampire in SecondLife.


I think you should try it, too. If you want to, you can click here in order to reach SecondLife.

LAST WEEK OF THE TRAINING | 21st Century Skills Training

 Oh! What two weeks it has been! You couldn't believe what happened in the previous weeks even if I told you but I AM BACK. I missed you so much. Those days a bit lonely as we are always at home however I have a good opportunty to make my loneliness more bearable. Yes, I'm talking about 21st Century Skills Teacher Training. Two week ago, we had our last training meeting and it was very informative and fun. If your are interested, keep reading! We have discussed about an article, Teaching Material in EIL by Matsuda, in the first session.  This article focuses on important parts of materials and textbooks. We have made a group and whole class discussion on this topic by sharing our reflections on the article. We found out that materials should include diverse representation of different things such as cultures, ideologies, accents, visuals, etc. Also, the article point out to the evaluation of materials by giving different criteria. For example, we should think about the variety...

Native Speaker but Make It Digital! | 21st Century Skills Training

 Hello friends! I hope you're having a good day with lots of sunlight and health. I'm at work and feeling well. In these COVID-19 days, going work and doing something out of my house feels levitating. In this post, we will talk about 4th lesson of 21st Century Skills Teacher Training.  The last lesson, as always, focused on different subjects and one of which was the terms related to digital environments. We have mainly talked about three different terms; technophobe, digital immigrant, digital native. Can you make any guesses what they could mean? or have your heard of them before?   Technophobe is an easy one I guess. People who do not understand technology and struggle with it, then as a result, became prejudiced and fearful of technology are named as technophobe. This is like every other phobia. If you do not understand something, you start to fear. Then, digital immigrant comes in, this term is has the same meaning with cultural immigrants but make cultural digi...

Sutori of Everything

Hi everyone! I guess now that you know I love literature. So, I have made another work on literature but this time I have used Sutori to tell you about my story. Sutori is, again, a website in which you can create stories as you can see down below. What's more interesting is that you can also convert your prepared stories into presentations and do not need any other gear to create presentations. Additionally, it allows you to add images, links, videos, and audios as any interesting presentation or story should be. What I have most liked about it is the feature which helps you to add quizzes to your story. In short, Sutori has all the things making your work easier and more interesting. As always, I have created an example and in this example, I have mentioned the novels of Jane Austen. If you want to know more about the website you can click here .
