Simple Experiences of an English Teacher

Hey there, Lodestars! 🙋🌟 I know the title may seem a bit depressing, but no worries, hopefully, I am not going anywhere.😌💓 Today, I am not planning to introduce anything new guys. I just want to talk about what we have been discussing so far, and have a little look at the past. 🌻 Let's start from the beginning... ⌛ 🔖When I first met with the blogger, it was the beginning of the second term. (Thanks to our teacher in Instructional Technologies and Material Design Lecture 🙏😊😇💖) 🔖By the time our teacher was introducing the lecture and the blogger, I was very skeptical and scared. Because I hadn't had this kind of a lecture before and I mean "we were talking about the technology". (And, I should admit that I was one of the "technology fraidy cats"😢. But, here I am. I've tried and I love it! 🙌💁😻)  🔖Then, our teacher started to introduce our tasks and I found myself mesmerized by the tools that we had been learning.  🔖I was so ...

Hello, it's me..🙌🙆 I was wondering if after all these hours you guys would like to meet again with another topic. {Thanks to Adele}😉😂 💣💥 RSS FEEDREADER  (You may download it by clicking on.) ➤It can sound a bit unfamiliar to you guys who do not know this software. (Believe me, at first I did not hear about it either.😅) But, do not afraid everyone, because we are going to discuss it in details. 👻A bit cut-and-dry but firstly let's start with the real meaning of FeedReader: FeeadReader is the oldest personal desktop RSS reader with a history of more than ten years. FeedReader automatically downloads updates from your favorite Web sites. So, it eliminates the need for you to constantly monitor multiple Web pages, while allowing you to immediately identify and retrieve new articles – no matter how long you’ve been away from your desk.

Have a nice day, Lodestars! 😊🙋🌟 Today, we have another exciting topic, which is "Infographics" . 🔔First, let's start with the definition of infographics and some examples of it.💁   Infographics are graphic visual representations of information, data or knowledge intended to present information quickly and clearly. (Wikipedia)   By using infographics we can create mind maps and make the informations reader-friendly.     Here, below I've found infographic samples.👇 Example 1 Example 2 💭When we examine the examples,we can clearly see that while creating an infographic; We summarize the topic that we intend to create an infographic. We use relevant visuals. We create a reader friendly homogeneous background.  ➤I should admit that as a hundred percent visual learner, colours and pictures are so important for me when I study. In my daily life, when I prepare "study notes" for my language lectures, I use so many colours...

Hi there everyone!🙋👻  You can guess from the title that I am getting famous..😎😏👀   I know you did not believe it and said "You are joking, right?" Well, of course I am.😂 However, technically the title is not wrong. I did my own movie poster, but not mine for sure. I made a poster for one of my favorite books "The Martian". While making my poster, I should admit I felt like I am the one who is going to produce this movie. 😀📹 Firstly, I've started to search for a proper tool for me to create a poster. Believe me guys, when I wrote "Poster Maker Tools" on Google, I've found hundreds of results, and out of them I chose PosterMyWall  . At first, it took my time a bit to figure out the tool, but after 15 minutes I started to create my poster.    I should say that I fell in love with some features of the tool. For instance, my biggest problem was to crop images in order to make a homogeneous atmosphere or appearance and then, I found out tha...

You can say that "Well, I am an old school person and nothing can be compared to my grandmother's storytelling." Actually, I won't judge you, because I am a big fan of my grandmom.😜🙌💙    But, we said that we are living in 21st Century, and we know that it gives us the opportunity to share our works with everyone through the technology. Thus, why won't we tell a story by using the technology?😌💻   Me and my best friend Refiye , again, couldn't stand without doing anything. (You know guys, we have ants in our pants.😂) Then, we decided to create a digital story that is about the meaning of being good friends. Out of 3...
