Hello everybody! This is the Padlet page for an eTwinning project called "Cultural Patchwork".

I am Yunus Kürşat Çelik who is the coordinator of the project. I am an English teacher who works at Mehmet Akif Ersoy Anatolian High School in Uludere, Şırnak, Turkey.

You can get to know me better by looking at the pdf file below!

# data[].attributes.body
9 partners from Turkey and 1 partner from Romania gathered together in order to improve our students' skills for using web 2.0 tools for education, media literacy skills, English language skills, awareness of the cultural diversity around them and their social skills.

We shot this video on the first day of our project. You can see the excitement in their eyes!

eTwinning: Cultural Patchwork - 24.03.2021

# data[].attributes.body
My students designed logos for the project using "Canva" web 2.0 tool and it contributed to their vocabulary a lot. While they are using the application, they learned so many words such as "crop, scale, frames, copy, paste, template, background, text etc."

# data[].attributes.body
My students introduced themselves to the teachers and the students from our partner schools by using two different web 2.0 tools which are Bitmoji for creating an avatar and ChatterPix for voicing their avatar in order not to expose their confidentiality for their safety on the internet.

What do we want to achieve? There is the answer below!

# data[].attributes.body
There are many different students who took responsibility in many different activities.

In order to provide my students security on the internet, I took parent permits and I didn't use their last names or their face.

You can have a look at the parent permits below!

I used all the activities integrated to the curriculum for my students' cognitive and social development.

8 - Teaching Methods We Use in Our Project

# data[].attributes.body
We used "Jamboard" for this activity by gathering together on "Zoom" online. You can have a look at the photos of my students while preparing our cultural corners:

I have taken the first screenshot while my students are learning how to use Jamboard as a web 2.0 tool for education.

After learning how to use Jamboard, I have taken another screenshot while my students are doing a magnificent job at researching about their own and other cultures!

# data[].attributes.body
This is the common product my students created on Jamboard!

My students not only learned about different cultures, but they also learned about their own culture and how to explain it in English language.

For our common product, our students joined the Quizziz contest about cultures. We prepared some questions from the "Cultural Corners" activity for our students beforehand and turned these questions into a quiz using "Quizziz" web 2.0 tool.

All the students attended to the contest and answered the questions. They enjoyed themselves while doing the activity. They learned about different cultures while having fun!

You can see the results below!

My students introduced their own culture to the students and teachers from our partner schools. My students improved their presentation skills, language skills, coordination skills and leadership skills.

My students prepared this presentation on "Google Slides" web 2.0 tool. Even though they were not in the same room, they could create an online slide that each student contributed which created a common product.

In this activity, we focused on the united cultures and our students did their best!

The students sang the song using the sample audio and the lyrics they have previously written.

The initial letters of the lyrics create a sentence which is "THIS PROJECT IS WHERE CULTURES MEET"

Students made their avatar and sang through "ChatterPix" or similar applications.
