Corpus-Based Material

-
       Hello!! It has been a long time since my last post. Now I am a 3 grade student in ELT. I passed my Educational Technologies course and now I am going to use my blog for my new course; "Current Issues in ELT." For this week's assignment, my friend Büşra Hazal and I prepared a corpus-based worksheet. Our worksheet included steps and activities that encouraged student and teacher corpus use. Our grammar focus on the worksheet was frequency adverbs based on unit 4 from MEB's prep class book. Our vocabulary focus was comparing always and never and their uses.

 Hello Everyone!! This week for my Educational Technologies class we were assigned to watch a movie and write a review about it. My friend Büşra Hazal Sert and I watched Lucy and we wrote a movie review about it on our class wiki page. Lucy is a science fiction and action movie aired in 2014 and it is about a woman (Scarlett Johansson) who achieved to use 100% of her brain capacity which made her solve the mysteries of the universe and humankind. Büşra Hazal and I could not stop laughing in some scenes because they were looking very unreal. However it was a great and interesting movie with awards and nominations that everyone should watch. Especially the visual effects were really good for a movie from 2014. I had great time using our class wiki page and working with Hazal. Wiki page was easy to use and being able to edit and write our comments about a movie we watched or we want to watch in the future was very entertaining. Using wikis as collaborative writing tools is a really ...

      Hello Everyone!!! This week my friends Salih, Büşra Hazal, and I were assigned to do collaborative work on Padlet. First, we created a wall on Padlet, then we chose a problem from the list that was given to us. We chose unemployment. After that, we started creating a KWL chart on Padlet. KWL chart is a chart that consists of three parts. The first part is the part where you write what you already know about the topic. The second part is what you want to know and the third part includes what you learned. We filled each part about the unemployment issue in Turkey. In what we learned part we found answers to our questions from what we want to know part. This way we became more knowledgeable about the unemployment issue and how it is handled by the government.      During our project; Padlet helped us to create a chart collaboratively. Me and my friends loved working and spending time together. It is very easy to create a Padlet account and start usi...
