Hello There !     Over 1 billion users and 80 million websites but it was 10 years ago, now imagine the new numbers. Our new subject is Web 2.0 and its tools but what is it?. W eb 2.0  enables users to create, share, collaborate and communicate their work with others, with no need for any web design or publishing skills [ 1] . Taken from     My new homework is about creating an infographic to inform you about my three favorite Web 2.0 tools. There are thousands of them on the Internet. I chose three tools by considering their features and benefits for me, later I made an infographic which has information about three tools and their affordances , constraints. To create the infographic, I used the 'Canva'. It is a simplified graphic-design tool website. Here is the infographic.       As stated above, there are thousands of tools and it is difficult for one person to find useful ones, but we can work collaboratively t...

Hello There ! Making magazine cover h as never been this easy, all you need is creativity. Today I am in front of you to show my magazine, Space Tribe, which is about space, and I covered four different subjects in the magazine which can allure space enthusiasts. This project stems from homework and it is about creating a cover that had two options I chose the second one, it was about creating a magazine cover and there were some rules we need to comply most important one is creating a logo. To create a magazine used postermywall and for the logo, I used freelogodesign , both of them are very easy to use and user-friendly that is exactly why I said all you need is creativity. (For a bigger version of the design)

Hello There ! As you all know, winter is coming, but we are safe in our houses what about giving one to our cat friends. This was the first idea that came to our mind when we heard our new homework, it was named as digital storytelling it had three different options in it: 1. Creating a Public Service Announcement (PSA) 2. Creating a How-to Story 3. Creating a fictional story    With my team partner İdil ( don't forget to visit her blog)  we picked the second option and started to work for it. The project is very easy to do yet beneficial for cats or any stray animals. First, you make a plan for the building, then you build and record at the same and finally narrate it. Here is the cat house we built with its cute resident: Prenses.     If you feel responsible for animals and reluctant to do something for them, you can build a house by following our guide to 'how to build a cat house' video below.

Hello There ! "The best teamwork comes from men who are working independently toward one goal in unison." says James Cash Penney about teamwork and that is what I am going to need to do for my new homework. Source      We need to create a group of 3 to 5 and choose a subject to work on and answer What we know, What we want to learn and what we learned questions. These three questions  are called the KWL chart. We will do this homework on a website called Padlet, it gives a chance to a group of students or teammates to work together at the same time. Padlet enables you to share texts, videos and visuals. We made a group of four and worked on climate change we filled the KWL chart individually. Personally, I stated what I know first and asked three questions for what I want to know they were; 1) How does climate change affect human health? 2) What is the main proof that shows it is really  happening? 3) What is the difference between...

Hello There ! I watched Planet of the Apes recently and last week my teacher gave me homework related to movies. The homework is about watching a movie and writing a review about it on the wiki with one fellow student. Mine is Ufuk Pehlivanoğulları   by the way . The movie is about an astronaut crew crashes on a planet where talking apes are the dominant species, and humans are the enslaved so it shows us an upside-down world. Thanks for reading. See you later. The Review. Taken from

Hello there! Creating a podcast. This is a new task for me  I was told to create a podcast for my blog, and I decided to create a minute-long podcast. Even though it is only a minute podcast, it took quite a long time to create. First, I need to find an idea for my podcast and elaborate it to serve my audience and publish it. Listening to a podcast is very easy you just click one and listen, but creating a podcast is not easy . Uploading your voice to the Internet made me feel anxious a little, it was the hardest part for me but creating, recording, editing and publishing is very easy thanks to technology we have today. If you ask me, will you use podcasts for your students  in the future ? I would say yes to your question because I would like my teachers to do the same for me. Thanks for reading. See you in the next post. Here is the podcast. Audio recording software >>

Hello There ! The title may make you think this post is about Liverpool but it is not... Sorry. Today I will talk about RSS feed. RSS feed is a pile of code that helps you to find new content on websites, blogs, etc. you are following without you to go to each blog or website. There are lots of RSS programs you can use some of them requires you to download it. The others work online. I am using FeedReader as a companion on my way to walk through the Internet. For now, I am following 10 blogs and websites I like every one of them, but my favorite is English Teaching 101 . It is a blog and a website at the same time. The blog gives ideas and solutions to help teachers. I started to follow it recently, but even in a short time; the blog managed to teach me activities to do in class and also gave me ideas to solve common problems in the classroom and those are the reason why  I recommend teachers to use it too. Thanks for reading. Let me know your favorite blog in th...
