Final Assignment: A ChatBot..?

 Hi everyone! As it is clear from the title, we are looking at two obvious facts: The fact that this post is going to be about a chatbot and this will be the last assignment i will be posting here. For this assignment, what we had to do was basically to talk to a chatbot that is acting like a historical or a known person, and we would ask 10 questions to them. After being done with the conversation, we had to write a report and ask AI to improve our report (yes, we are using AI twice in one assignment). I used the chatbots and feedback tools from Magic School as suggested by my instructor. I asked the bot to be Mikhail Tal, the very reason why I have been playing chess for all these years now. I always found his play style to be very interesting and unorthodox, which caught my attention instantly. Having a discussion with a bot that acted like him felt very odd at first, but after seeing that the bot was providing very accurate answers, I actually enjoyed the dialogue we had. I can see how this would be integrated into a teaching environment, as the chatbots can easily make the conversation fluent while transferring a lot of valuable knowledge at the same time. My only issue regarding AI was for some reason, my chatbot was simply not "intelligent" enough to give me a transcription of the dialogue we had. I've tried around 8 different prompts to convince the AI to give me an exact transcription, it just couldn't do so. So, i had to copy and paste my whole transcripton which was very annoying. Other than that, 10/10 would definitely use this when teaching.

AI and Corpus Based Material Task: I'm Back!!

     Hello everyone! After around 5 months, I'm back with yet another post, another assignment. This was an assignment for our Current Issues in Teaching class, and as obvious by the title, it was a material preparation task that utilizes Corpus and AI. To explain it briefly, we had to prepare a worksheet that enabled the learners to use corpus and genAI to complete certain tasks about "since" and "for." Another thing that we had to do was a lesson plan of this worksheet that is prepared by following the ASSURE model's principles and evaluative categories. For me personally, having to come up with creative ways to integrate both corpus and AI into a topic that most of us learnead very traditionally in the past was quite fun and interesting. It was a group work, with me and two of my friends(Tufan and Demirali), have used canva for the design of the worksheet, and utilized Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA) together with genAI tools such as ChatGP...

AR/VR Integrated Lesson Plan: Does Technology Even Have a Limit?

 Welcome back everyone! As mentioned in the title, this post is going to be about AR/VR integration into ELT.      For startes, we had to prepare a handout in which we introduced 2 landmarks and 1 museum through AR/VR components and supplementary Skill-spesific activities. Me and my friends (Demirali Kılıç, Tufan Gürültü and Zeynep Yeşildağ) decided to pick Prague, Czech Republic (%99 of it being my influence) for this activity. Prague is a beautiful city with a very rich history behind its every street and building, there were so many beautiful landmarks to choose from but we decided to go with the most popular ones, being the Prague Castle, the Charles Bridge, and the National Gallery of Prague. We used 360 tour guides from youtube for the first two, and for the Gallery, there is a real-life interactive map of the ENTIRE gallery up to date, which came in very handy and added more depth to our handout. We, of course, prepared a lesson plan according to ASSURE Model'...

Flipped Learning: An Unorthodox Approach to Teaching

 Hi everyone! Today, i'm posting about another assignment, which is visible in the title, about flipped learning. Based from my understanding, it is possible to explain it as an approach to create more room for practice and varied activities in the classroom by moving the "lecturing" part into a homework-like form. Basically, you provide students with videos and materials to go through when they are outside the classroom, and when they come, they already have an idea about the topic that you will now go through in a better way with activities since you no longer need to spend half the time you have lecturing. I think it's a great approach, and i had a lot of fun preparing a video regarding it with my friends. My friends and i have chosen "simple present tense" as our topic and prepared a 5-minute video on canva explaining it. After that, there is a 15-question quiz about simple present tense at the end of the video that we prepared by using WordWall, and an ...
