MindMeister is it!

Hi everyone!

I’m sure that you know about mind maps. They’re really helpful when you try to conceptualise any topic. With the help of technology, we can easily create online mind maps and share them. However, it was not possible to let people add on them and improve your mind map in one place. MindMeister is what you need to use when you are in need of a collaborative mind map. It allows you to create your mind map and share it with others. That’s why it is a meister 😂. Also, you can print your mind map after you finish creating it. I find it helpful and created my own mind map. I thought that I would use it in my class while I do the topic of plants and let students add on it by searching for different types of plants. You can see mine down there and you can also Click Here to go and add on it.

However, technology brings its benefits with itself and gives us different opportunities to learn languages. Today, want to talk about two different application I found very useful. Firstly, I’m gonna talk about Duolingo. It’s an application within which you can find different languages to learn. If you ask why Duolingo, I would say that it’s not boring and old school. 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...

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. You can click here  and see what kind of an activity I have uploaded.

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...
