MY INTERNET-BASED PROJECT

Hello my followers!!! 😄This post is about an internet-based project.

I was assigned a padlet project for Instructional Technologies and Materials Design course. It was a group project, so firstly we created a group which consisted of 6 people. My group members are Sibel Aksoy, Elif Beyza Özan, Gamze Erol, Reyyan Hacer Hünerli, and Emine Arslan. 

We were given two options to choose for this project. The first one was about a global or local problem such as climate change, refugees, and water pollution. The second one was about freedom.

Me and my friends preferred the first option and decided on refugees as a subject matter. We were expected to create a padlet wall for the subject which we had chosen. The content of the wall had to include a description of the problem, causes and effects of the problem, some public opinion on the problem and finally solutions to the problem.

We determined our responsibilities for the project and searched on the internet. After that, we created a Padlet wall. If you want to have a look at our work, you can click here.

I think that Padlet is a user-friendly tool because we worked on the same padlet wall at the same time. Also, I hardly faced any problems during the task. Padlet allowed me to make different designs. I really liked using it because it was easy and handy.

I think our project is an example of 21st century learning. Before we created the project, we had brainstormed on the subject. Also, I believe that our project is a product of collaboration. After we had finished it, I realized that my global awareness about the refugee problem increased. In my opinion, using Padlet as a learning tool helps students to develop 21st century skills such as communication, global awareness, collaboration.

Have you ever used padlet as a 21st century learning tool?
