Udemy Certificate

This flipped classroom video making course is a very practival way of carrying out classroom lessons. Unfortunately, as teachers, we can have many reasons for cancelling our lessons or our lessons being cancelled. Also, compensating for these lessons are really difficult as they are simply not suitable for everyone. Therefore, flipped classrooms allow students to learn the concepts or topics theoretically and have more time for production during the lesson in the class.

This course covered a variety of ways to produce videos to be uploaded to YouTube, Vimeo, Animoto, Jing, Camtasia, Web Screencast Tools, and TED Ed. In my opinion, YouTube was the easiest to use for uploading a video and I also believe that it is the most common one used among students for different purposes such as music, documentaries etc. which they can also add learning and it would be the same act they do for their daily activities.

I used Mind Meister to assist me in making a mind map that has all the terms that is related to a 'task'. This mind map will be useful for prospective teachers while designing a task for task-based learning.

Podcast - Holistic Learning

https://anchor.fm/sumeyra-aydin/episodes/Significance-of-holistic-learning-in-an-ESLEFL-classroom-e3kel5 Holistic learning is important for students to be able to use an integration of skills simultaneously, which allows them to relate to more authentic situations and engage them in learning. It allows students to develop better communication and social skills, which in addition increases their overall self-confidence. Holistic learning not only focuses on the mental development, but also on the psychological, social and the emotional growth of the learner.

Significance of this blog

Art is defined as 'the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination...' by Oxford Dictionaries. Thus, taking this definition of the word art into account, it is apparent that teaching isn't about giving instructions but rather the way one is capable of producing art while doing it, especially in the field of ELT. reference:en.oxforddictionaries.com Links to other blogs related to ELT: http://eltuptodate.blogspot.com/ https://elteachershub.blogspot.com/ https://backtotheelt.blogspot.com/ https://teacherinprogression.blogspot.com https://asyoulikelt.blogspot.com
