WEEK 03


Instructional Software for 21st-Century Teaching 

During the third week, we discussed topics such as instructional software, drill and practice, tutorial, simulations, instructional games, problem-solving and integrated learning systems. I want to tell you what I learned last week, and what topics I agree with or disagree with, on this blog. 

  • Instructional Software:
We have learned the teaching spellings under this title. In fact, many of the programs we use constantly in our daily lives are under this heading. In the beginning, these applications are PowerPoint, excel and word. I think that if we are thinking of teaching in the future, PowerPoint is the software that will be most useful to us, because here we can prepare different presentations for children and encourage students to take classes. I can define the only bad side of PowerPoint as the fact that the presentation contents are few. because I like fancy and colourful content a lot, PowerPoint seems a little lacking to me in this regard. Therefore, if I am going to prepare a presentation, I prefer canva application. 

    



  • One of the things we learned and focused on a lot in this course is that Papert has designed a program called Logo. This topic, which we talked about many times in class and stubbornly no one answered our teacher, stuck in my mind a lot. At the same time, the name logo also inspired the "logo", a toy that children play with and which also greatly improves their cognitive intelligence. 



  • Drill and Practice:

In fact, the basis of this title is that children learn by practicing. I think this is one of the most effective methods of learning, because sometimes just because teachers try to teach something doesn't mean that the student can understand that topic. I think it is more important for students to do and develop something for themselves, so this teaching technique is actually one of the most important techniques to help students learn something.

  • If we have to give an example of this, memory cards are one of the most important activities that help me teach.

  • Simulations: 

Simulation is a technology that tries to provide a real-life experience to show how some systems work. If you have heard, Cappadocia is simulating a balloon tour with VR glasses for 35 TL because we Turks can't afford it. It can help us to imagine and embody in our minds through simulations what is impossible for us to do in reality. in the same way, if we use such simulations in education, it can help students to develop their imagination, to make some things easier in their minds.



  • Instructional Game: 

Instructional games allow students to focus and learn better by increasing motivation. 

As an example "scratch" website can be given.


  • In general, in this course, we have seen different applications of how we can use teaching technologies more effectively. We have tried to understand how education has changed over time, in what ways education was given to students in the past, how it is given now and what kind of education will be given in the future.

  Week 14 This week is with our teacher Tülin and it is the last week of our term. On the one hand, I am sad that the semester is over, but I am also very happy that I will not be taking the Libe 120 class again. (I hope I don't have to take it again since my midterm is low👐👐). This week I'm going to tell you where we left off in our Final Project and what we did in this week's Ed201 lesson. Final Project: This week we will complete our Storybook and website in our Final Project.  To design our storybook, we first entered the "Storyjumper" website. We rummaged through the site a bit, but couldn't find enough animations for our storybook. I think the "storyjumper" website is quite inadequate in terms of animation and shapes. That's why we thought about designing our storybook from Canva and then transferring it to Stoyjumper.   We started designing our story from Canva. Here, I would like to tell you a little bit about the subject of our story b...

 Week 08  Google Forms and Midterm Week This week I will tell you about the things I will tell you in my blog, google forms, that is, how to prepare a survey, and I will again talk about how I work with midterms.💟💟 First of all, if you want, I would like to mention google forms, which is important for a lot of research, thanks to which we reach more people and collect research data while conducting research. First of all, although it may seem difficult when you don't know, it turns into a very easy and useful application after learning. If you would like to teach this, I would like to summarize a little what I have learned. First, we enter Google Drive. Then we click on the "New" button on the homepage. Then a sub-tab opens in front of us, there are many sections there, such as google slides, documents, from here we select the google forms section. And the survey section opens, now we can create our forms. If you want, you can then look at the responses section of the s...

 WEEK 05  COURSERA MODULE 3 This week we learned about designing technology and the important topic for me "is transactional distance theory" I think this topic is important because our teacher maybe asks about this theory in the midterm. Designing technology- Enriched and Enabled Learning Environments (TEEL ) In this module, we have seen different educational environments developed with technology. These include e-learning developed for people with disabilities, training designed just to learn something online, and many other technologies.  Our second lesson explained, the theory of motivation, coalition, and performance. As I mentioned above, these are the technologies that will provide motivation for us in e-learning. The video also talks about 6 topics that this lesson aims to teach us. (learning, design, and technology) He is talking about design, if we are going to do a job, we need to plan it first and design how it will look. This is equally true in educatio...
