That is my voice recording link. Anyone who wants have fun, please be welcomed. It was very entertaining class session because I was a part of a production which is a language usage process that I could observe myself by listening. I personally believe that such class session are benefical for every type of students especially lazy ones who do not like participating. Speaking of language learning, we should ask ourselves that how can be observed outputs of L2 learning by students? There are some ways but the most enjoyable one can be audio recordings task that are performend by students. With such tasks, they will have chances to evaluate themselves which may be more constructive for self-development of students.

Reflection on my vacabulary test scores

I really liked the vocabulary tests. Each one of them has nice and smooth style to understand its context and it led me to find out what I want to see about my vocabulary level. All the tests I took are consistent with each other and they showed that I know approximately 10 000 words which is seen satisfying for now. I have never experienced such testes before and I see that it is a huge loss for me. Moreover, I will definitely make my students use such tools because those tools are user friendly and you may have a chance to learn new words, even when you are testing yourself.

Reflection section 4

Where do you need to use of technology in education? Probably in everywhere but the language teaching is one of the most necessary area where the technology should be used. When I start to learn English as a second language, the only material I can define as a technologic one is a radio that is used for listening activities by my teacher. Although it looks insufficient, my English teacher was using the radio very effectively to make our ears train to English. We were listening some reading text that were in our books as well and trying to match words, filling the gaps in the text or trying to repeat what we were hearing from the radio. It was fun and educatory activity. All those activities were being done according to a certain system, I guess, which is the ASSURE model. My teacher was doing all the necessary procedures that should be done in the system. He was good at utilizing the technology even though he had insufficient equipment. However, I am not sure he was aware of existing such system.:)
