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.

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 see an example of mine above. I have created a Canva in the name of a Turkish Holiday. Click Here to Go Canva!

  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.
