WELCOME TO MY BLOG

 Hi guys! 
Welcome to my page. I am so happy and excited to finally start this blog. This is my first time using Blogger so I’m glad that I’m gaining experience points to add to my life level bar. :)) Yeey! 😊

Ok, so you may wonder what kind of content I will share here. Here’s the deal: I started this blog as part of one of my university courses, specifically Instructional Technologies and Material Design in English Language, offered by my lovely instructor, Gökçe Kurt. Since this is a learner blog, I will be sharing my thoughts and insights on topics such as education, 21st-century technology, using technology in learning English, podcasts, and many other subtopics. It’s a great opportunity to express my ideas without stressing out because of the fear that all eyes are on me and people are judging me. We can admit that talking online is much easier (especially if you’re a very anxious person).

Sooo, if you guys are all ready, put on your seatbelts, and let’s dive into this journey together! Stay tuned for more, and don’t hesitate to join the conversation. Feel free to leave a comment! 💭

P.S. If you haven't checked out the About Me section and don't know who I am please click here  😄

I am so tired because of the midterms and all the assignments but anyway, I still have the energy to dance even in the subway hehe. 💃           Today I am here to share another fun experience! Me and my bestie Berfin 💗(click here to see her blog) created a podcast! We created a very short-story namely The Melody of the Forest ( I embedded it at the final of this post)           We had so much fun but at the same time, we encountered a lot of problems. The voice recording was the most difficult part because some sites were not working properly 😠and we didn’t find a quiet place in the whole campus. Who knew that all the building's doors were closed on Sunday??? We even booked a room in the library but we didn’t know that the room was not separated and we had to record somewhere else. Guess where, it may sound a little di...

 Hi there, brilliant people! ✨ Open your eyes👀 and take a look at the world around you. This is the 21st century, my dear readers. A century where technological, economic, social, and cultural transformations happen so rapidly that you have to be as fast as Lightning McQueen to keep up.🚀      What about learning? The days when we used to learn things in a boring way just by memorizing and taking notes are long gone. Welcome to 21st-century learning that describes the necessary skills needed today, such as digital literacy, cultural competence, critical thinking, and problem-solving, to thrive in today’s complex and interconnected global landscape (Bernhard, 2015). And when it comes to learning languages, especially English, this approach becomes even more important.      Just think about it—English is EVERYWHERE. From social media to movies, online games, and international jobs -  it is the lingua franca of the world. Should English classes st...
