Thinglink!

 Thinglink is a web 2.0 tool which helps you to add questions, links, texts, etc. on top of your pictures. But do not imagine it as a plain and simple application like that. The app is very improved about simple graphic designs. It also helps you to create 360 C. videos, online showrooms, galleries, infographic, maps, floor plan, presentation, vr experience, cv, timelines and 3D models. 

All these features are very useful in teaching. Especially it is easier and more attractive to students. For example, as you see in this pic, there are location symbols and when you press each of them a different section opens. Imagine using this with your students. The visuals will be absolutely perminent and students will be more interested in your lesson. 



When you log in Thinglink with your Google account, it also connects you to Google Classroom and you can transfer your students easily to Thinglink without any error. Also there are 10 modules that help you with the use of application.

 Seesaw is a platform on which you can create, design and customize portfolios. Using Seesaw, you can add photos, videos, links, etc. to your portfolio and enrich it. Another function of Seesaw is that it allows you to create a classroom by importing it from Google Classroom. This class can be used very interactively. When teachers post something students will see it on time and will be able to comment and ask their questions. They can add drawings, pictures, videos etc. to their classes and portfolios. Also parents can observe their children's progress and current state.

My Thoughts About Telecollaboration

 Hello everyone, today I want to talk about an event that I have participated recently which is telecollaboration. Okay, what did we do and how did it go? I'll tell you one by one. This event was between Istanbul Unıversity Cerrahpasa ELT students and Malaga University & Compultense University students from Spain. We created groups with Spanish students and met via zoom. My partners were from Compultense University. In our first meeting we introduced ourselves one by one with presentations we had created before our meeting. I was very very nervous at first, I couldn't prepare enough because I went to my hometown that day and stuff. But my partners were very good.

In our third meeting we told them a traditional Turkish story and they told us a traditional Spanish story and we talked about those a lot. They found our story very inter
