Online Movie Poster

-

Hello again!

The topic for this week is an ONLINE POSTER!

        We were assigned to create a movie poster project that is based on a novel or a magazine cover project. I chose to make a movie poster of a novel that I like and reviewed before in my blog, Fantastic Night by Stefan Zweig. 

        Doing my poster, I used Canva and Adobe Photoshop. First of all, I decided on my cast. Because there is dominantly one main character in the novel, I chose one actor. Then, I searched for his suitable photographs on the internet. I had to show an important scene from the book in my poster, that is why I chose the one with flying balloons. He did not have any photographs with balloons, so I had to photoshop them.

        I combined them and then added some effects via Adobe Photoshop and Canva. Next, I added my texts to my poster via Canva. The hardest parts were finding suitable pictures and combining them.

        I enjoyed so much making this project. I had created some posters for my choir before, but I forgot a bit about photoshopping. So, I needed to discover the app again, which probably will help me in the future to do anything else. It was both learning and having fun. Yet, it was a bit hard task. Because of all, I uncertainly may use a similar task with my future students.

Thanks for reading until here! See you in the next post, until then, take care!

Bye!

Hello!           This is my first post on this blog. In this blog, I will share my experiences and some information about educational technology. I really want to be a modern and competent English teacher in the future. That's why I believe that this blog and the Educational Technologies class I take this semester will help me to address my future plans and wishes to become true.            Nowadays, we are experiencing something really new and different: The Covid-19 pandemic. In this situation, we are doing online classes and using technology a lot. So, everyone should know about technology usage in education, both teachers and students.            I hope my posts will help you to adapt to this situation and your future academic life. Also, I believe you will enjoy seeing my posts and follow me with a curiosity about what is new and what I will share with you.  Thanks for reading until here!

Hello again! The topic for this week is an internet-based project work:   PADLET !           This week we did an internet-based project, which is a 21st-century education task. My friends  Sabrican Demir , Beyza Çekici ,  Ali Bilen , and I have created a wall on Padlet about Coronavirus Pandemic. We have posted what we know, what we want to know, and what we learned  about Coronavirus on the wall.            The reason why we chose this topic is, it is a hot topic and crucial nowadays. Moreover, there is some information both we have already known, and we want to know about this topic. So, it helped us to satisfy our curiosity and to be more aware of Coronavirus.  I have never tried it before but I have enjoyed a lot using Padlet and posting on the wall.           Yet, I was a bit hesitant to write what I learned part because there are lots of useless and misleading information on the internet. I tried to choose more reliable websites that  officially  give information about the virus

Fantastic Night Wiki Book Review

  Hello again! The topic for this week is WIKIS !         Wikis are the websites that people can write and edit collaboratively. We are actually familiar with wikis a lot: Wikipedia, Wiktionary, wikiHow, etc.         So, my task was creating a book review page in PBworks, editing it, then editing my classmates' page if it is needed, and leaving a question in the comments, lastly answering my comment. I chose  Fantastic Night by Stefan Zweig .            I enjoyed a lot doing the task. Because I generally forget the plot of books with details, it was a bit hard for me to write a book review.            I have already known that people can change a page in wikis, but I did not know how easy and practical it is. I think it can be applied in class as a tool for practicing writing and collaborating among students. That's why I may use it in the future. Thanks for reading until here! See you in the next post, until then, take care! Bye!
