Working on the Website Entries

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 aware of the situation and my responsibilities.

We also did a small meeting with our instructor Melda Hoca, we wanted to show and get feedback on how our organization and process is going. It motivated us a lot as a group. We needed a bit of validation. I hope right after finals we will be able to show her our entries.

So Learnivores, I won't be posting here for two weeks, take care of yourself!

With those courses, you don't necessarily have to go somewhere or sometimes even pay. The websites have a range of courses from coding to drawing and I have finished one on photography. Some of the websites' courses are accredited so you can have your certificate and add it on your cv etc. Here are some of them: https://www.coursera.org/ https://www.edx.org/ https://www.udacity.com/ https://www.udemy.com/ .

Critical Thinking and English as a Global Language

Last week, my friends from the ELT department and I started taking online courses as part of a research study I mentioned earlier ( click here to see ). We are supposed to write reflections every week after our sessions on our blogs. I also believe it makes the experience more permanent. 1 st Week - 07.11.2020 Critical Thinking and English as a Global Language Firstly, we defined critical thinking. I had basic prior knowledge about what critical thinking was related to. However, after I did the pre-readings and take the test sent, it became more concrete in my mind. Starting the session, the trainer directed some questions about critical thinking, we discussed the questions as groups of four and everyone had their own duty in the group. Then, we shared what we discussed. I’ve learned that critical thinking is an important skill for people to organize their thoughts in a systematic way, find reliable sources of information, express themselves better. We defined strong and...
