Using corpus as an educational tool!  Hi there, dear reader! Today I want to share our fun journey creating a worksheet and lesson plan as a group work focusing on the verbs "get" and "take." Trust me, it was quite the adventure! The Task and Our Awesome Material So, what did we do? We designed a worksheet to help preparatory school students master the tricky differences between "get" and "take." Here's the scoop: we gave them a short story filled with blanks where they had to choose the right verb. But before diving into the story, the students did some detective work using a corpus (a big collection of texts) to see how these verbs are used in real life. After filling in the blanks, they listened to the story to check their answers. Cool, right? I'll include the worksheet at the end of this post, so stay tuned dear reader! Data-Driven Learning Using a corpus as a tool for data-driven learning has huge benefits. It allows students to see...

On the bright side, it allows students to learn at their own pace and makes classroom time more interactive. However, it can also be challenging for teachers to prepare effective videos and materials. While we haven’t fully implemented it in practice, we’re assuming the role of teachers experimenting with this method—and we’re so excited to experience how it works! Our Task Our task was to design a flipped classroom experience for high school prep students by creating a teaching video and a quiz to support their learning. Berkay, Selen, and I chose the grammar topic Comparative and Superlative Adjectives from Unit 5 of the MEB prep kaynağının 5. ünitesinde...

We've reached the end of another term! Hello my dear reader, today I came to say goodbye for a short time, we talked about a lot of things together, didn't we?✌ Now it's time to evaluate them and choose our favorites!💫 I mentioned that I opened this course for the technology course I took, I complete the tasks given by my teacher and share them here. Now it's time to evaluate this lesson and our work. Technology integration in language teaching Dear reader, as you know, all the posts I have made so far have touched on technology integration in language education. As a future teacher and a student who grew up with technology, I was always aware of the importance of keeping up with this development and integrating technology "correctly" into lessons.💪 Taking such a course was very useful in teaching me how to use technology as well as how not to use it. We started these tasks with infographics and continued with podcasting, digital storytelling, calloborative ...
