Greetings! Have you watched any stop-motion movies recently ? You can take a look at the review we made which will most likely make you want to watch one.  As per our instructions Reyhan , Serra and I created a review of the movie "Mary and Max" on Google Docs. The subject movie was not a part of the instructions though, it was suggested by Miss Reyhan and thanks to her great taste we didn't spend a lot of time pondering which movie to review. Since none of us use Google Docs regularly it took us a little time to get used to its functions. After learning which buttons to press it is actually a really good tool to write something with different people. My personal favourite is the suggestion function which allows you to propose a change without having to delete your partner's work. However, we still used other means to communicate what those proposals meant. It feels better to talk about changes through texting eachother but that might be because we're not comfor...

 Greetings! You probably know the story of Snow White right?  A beautiful princess becomes cursed by an evil witch and falls to a coma. But what if the cause of that curse wasn't magic but something we all already have? Well that is what me and my friends Berat and Mustafa wondered about aswell so we made a small video about it. We first decided on the scenario of the story and used our own voiced to give life to it. Then we used a website called Pixton to make a nice little movie. Lastly we combined the visuals and the audio with a video editing tool named CapCut . I thought it'd be easy enough to voice act then swiftly attach the voice to a picture. Appearently that is not quite how it works. Preparing the character models for visuals took a lot of effort and time. Then we realized some of our lines were longer than they needed to be so we had to do cut out some parts of them. I also realized how much I paused in between words while doing that. Even after all that we deci...

  Greetings! Have you ever thought about what it means to learn?   You probably think it is the process of taking information and that would be correct. However, there is still much more to learning and the process of learning. There are many techniques and methods developed throughout decades or even centuries to offer the best and most effective learning experience possible. Especially with the rapid technological advancements and ease of access to information in the 21st century, learning and teaching must be updated regularly to keep up with the time.   Since almost everyone has a device to access the internet, we no longer depend on hard copies of books and articles to find the information we seek. Supported by the ever-innovative creators on the internet we have countless ways to process, organize and fact-check this seemingly endless stream of information.   With endless information and options comes endless misinformation and unreliable options. I...

 Greetings! Since you came to this blog I guess you should know what this place is about (or what I think it will be about). This is mainly about furthering my own education (since it is part of my course).
