Learning through websites: KWL Technique

                In this project, we had to do group work about one of the specific 21st-century issues. In order to achieve this, we had to pick one of the issues from the list, and in the very beginning, we had to begin with writing down "what we know" about that topic. I and my friends picked violence against street animals which is a very delicate subject for all of us as a group, so we did very diligently. We did this project by using the website called padlet and this website has a very organized structure that provides us to create our project very easily and it made all production processes very smooth. When we face an issue in our daily lives, we may ask ourselves how this issue can be avoided but we ask it only for that temporary time which will be stay forgotten until the next same incident. This project provides us to get focused on the issue that we want to find a solution to also in this way we force ourselves to ask questions about the issue. To sum up, this project has a very effective role in 21st-century learning skills in terms of its interactivity and close relation to the real problems in the outer world.

Wikiing

            Wikiing was a very interesting and pleasant experience for me. I was supposed to create a film review on a very free platform. The reason why I say it free, because of someone’s capability of editing my text on that platform, and it was the first time I encountered the feeling of someone could edit the text I had started to write. In my opinion, it is a highly fun and very relaxing activity to deal with within spare time. I %100 percent use wikiing activity in the future, in my class. Because I believe that at least for once, every student should have this experience.
