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.

It was fun!  In the second part of our training session, our teachers Melda Yılmaz and Dilek İnal trained us about English’s being a global language. Throughout our lesson, we discussed different criteria that make English a global language. I personally think that English is a global language because of the p...

Let’s Learn About English Authors

  Hi everyone! Together, let’s learn about English authors who have been very influential to English Literature. While working on English Literature I preferred to use Quizlet because it is a very useful application that allows you to prepare flash cards and turn them into quizzes. I know that preparing flash cards is a hard thing to do with paper and scissors but with the help of Quizlet everything is much easier. As you can see in the screenshot on the left, there are different options as flash cards, learning section and test. I have prepared an example for you to understand much better. You click here to see my Quizlet.
