10th Week - Closer to the Product! Hola everyone! I hope you are feeling great, your mental and physical health is stable. Otherwise, nothing works. The last two weeks were so hard for me to focus and stay resilient. We also gave a break for the finals to focus easily on our projects. Our deadline is also getting closer. Let's check what we have done last two weeks. We started to collect information and share it with each other. We tried to keep our work as collaborative as possible. As we can't gather face-to-face, I believe the motivation level is also hard to keep. It is easier to feel demotivated or team members have more tendency to procrastinate. Mostly it is a result of miscommunication. I felt that a bit in our group since we couldn't meet very often and now we have little time to realize all the plans. I am so excited but I hope our group will refresh and finish all the entries on time. For next week we are planning to focus on possible drawbacks and solutions to t...

9th Week - Working on the Website Entries Asalaam Alaikum dear Learnivores. The Arabic 'hello' means that 'may the peace be upon you', did you know that? Peaceful days, friends. It is finals week so I hope that peace will also be upon me. In this week's entry, I will keep you short as we as a group did not do much new.  Last week we started to search on our topics and we keep searching and writing some outlines. Our instructor let us give some break to focus on our finals and then do the remaining work more efficiently. Our group decided to keep doing some searches also in finals week as we didn't want to move away and prepare our website on time. I will be updating you later on.  This week, we have been given a few reflection questions about the validity of our searches and materials, and also some tools that may be helpful for our search. It was a bit hard to answer and it is slowly settling for me to act suspicious about the resource I found. It made me more ...

 8th Week - Organisation and Collecting Information for the Website Hi all! This week we focused on the organization and outline of the timeline. As we have limited time and a lot of work to do, it is crucial to design the path beforehand to have a realistic plan and outcome. I hope, we as a team are good at this, we'll see.  We discussed how to share the topics to be searched, written, and edited to be uploaded on the website. To share the topics properly and discuss what each of them is related to, we did some general research on our topic. This also helped each of us find which sub-topic of technology use in language learning we are most interested in. At the end of the week, we did a video call together and decided on how and when to take the next steps. Unexpectedly, we couldn't share some topics (possible drawbacks and issues; suggestions and solutions for them) easily, as they require more time and dedication. They are also the most important and the most intertwined to...

7th Week - We will create a website! Bonjour Learnivores, hope you are okay! I am fine. This week has been busy as I had some final assignments already. That is also the reason why this blog post is late. Let's start! As I indicated before, the training part is over and this week we started planning our website outlines and discussing ideas. The first step was to decide on the topic of the website which was the hardest for me. We thought about it before but it was not that serious. In this week we did some research to find the most influential developments or factors that will shape the future of ELT as a group. After that, we had a meeting on Zoom to discuss and brainstorm the ideas that could be the main topic of our website. To be honest, not all of us were fully prepared, and also we were not sure if the topics we had considered were suitable for the aim. We were not sure if it was too comprehensive or too specific. So, we decided to consult our instructor. We had thought about...
