Making a podcast.

      Welcome, again...     This week me and my friend Bora did something unusual. We did a podcast! Well, it wasn't a podcast podcast but it was a very educative task. We learned many other things on our way as well such as learning how to use " Wondershare Filmora ." It was the app we used to edit the audio. It wasn't a difficult task but it was pretty fun.     Overall, it was a nice experience and we had so much fun. Especially the sound effects was pretty fun!

Padlet, a good idea

 Hello, again...      Today me and my friends Büşra Hazal and Elif tried using the app Padlet. Padlet is a platform that can host many walls at the same time. It is also beneficial to use and strengthen a student's 21st century learning skill collaboration.        Our task was simple. We did a KWL activity. You choose a topic and do these 3 steps. Write what you know, what you want to know, and what you learned. It helped us to see our prejudices can be misleading. We also learned more about unemployment in Turkey which is a hot topic on its own.     I must emphasize the use of Padlet because it is a simple task. All you need is an account to sign in and you are good to go! You can make a wall about any topic you want, anytime, anywhere. It even has a mobile app that you can download and use.
