A Beginner's Guide to Educational Technologies

Hello to all of you! In this post, we'll discuss what flipped classroom refers to and our experience trying to implement it. For the given task, I worked with Defne . Flipped classrooms flip the usual classroom approach by giving educational information online prior to class, allowing students to work on problem-solving or cooperative-learning assignments with the instructor's assistance during class time. It has several advantages, such as allowing students to select when, how, and where they want to see learning materials before class, and shifting accountability from teachers to students, resulting in a more student-centered learning environment than the flipped classroom. Moreover, the flipped classroom method stimulates engagement and connection, enhances academic achievement and learning motivation, gives students more time to address problems alone and cooperatively with the support of peers and instructors, and boosts autonomy and self-regulation. Let's think about ...

 Corpus supplies the data from which students can uncover patterns on their own. The emphasis is mainly on grammar and vocabulary. In the assignment in question, I worked with Defne . Choosing one confusing issue for English learners, we sought to give a place for the "research-then-theory" approach via Corpus-based instruction.  We utilized MEB English coursebook while deciding on our subject. The initial step was to decide whether we would create our corpus-based materials that would be used in class or out of the class. So, we thought that it would be better to observe the students’ improvement if they were used within the class hours. We aimed at inductive learning which refers to learning by discovery.  Learners are given samples of corpus data containing specific language forms and instructed to develop their own generalizations that they feel would account for the data. We followed a few major steps while preparing the corpus basics materials. These steps were pro...
