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!

The Sheep Killer Podcast

Hello again! When you were a kid, did you like listening to stories? What about a story with some interesting sound effects? The topic for this week is PODCASTING !           I chose the story task because I already engaged in music a lot and wanted to do something a bit different. I also like storytelling, even, listening to stories was one of the best activities for me when I was a kid.            Then I had to find a friend to collaborate with to do this task. Fortunately, one of my friends, Sabri , was also looking for someone. So, we decided to make a story together. You can take a look at his charming blog by clicking his name, as well.           The next step we have to do was creating a story. As calculating the time spent with the emphasis, intonation, and sound effects, we have to create a very succinct story.            After finishing creating the story, we had to record our voices. This part was a bit hard for me because I am a perfectionist person, so I recorded my voice

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!
