Creating poster using Glogster

This is the poster created by Burak üzümcüler & Sinan Sarıhan. It's about 21st century communication. It was really useful assignment since you can use video, audio and pictures. I really enjoyed this assignment. This is definitely project I'm going to use in my classroom.

Create Puzzles


It was a great task this week I've been working on this week. At first you choose a topic. Then you can create your own puzzle. I find it really helpful for teachers since you can help your students practice what they have learnt. You can create these puzzles by using www.discoveryeducation.com 

Have a nice week!

Time to wiki

Wiki space

Wiki space was a different dimension of teaching. My experience of wikiing was a bit difficult as it was my first time to use. However, I had great fun and found it advantageous. It was a way of sharing and recommending English novels which would encourage your students to read more and improve their English.

Time to tell a story


Audio and voice recording >>

Pınar Zırhlı & Burak Üzümcüler

This is the story My friend Pınar and I told. It was totally fun to record our voice as the setting was a little bit noisy. Anyway, Podcasting is an essential part of authentic teaching/learning. It would be helpful for teacher to shape questions according to the audio. On the other hand, S/He can ask students to summarize the audio.

Welcome to my blog


Hello Everyone;


I'm Burak. I've been studying English Language Teaching at Marmara 
University(Istanbul,Turkey). Besides, I've been working as an English teacher at a language school for almost 8 months. I believe Teaching is centered on leadership. The teacher is the initiative, creative and open-minded person inspiring all the students. I've created this blog in order to post my studies and share all my activities. Hope you enjoy visiting my blog.
