    Here are some ideas for integrating CSCL to language teaching. You can also find practical activities.

    This is a useful source for language teachers including benefits, elements and sample activities of CSCL.
  • afranur on 17 Dec 13
     
    İbrahim thanks for sharing this source, I believe we should make use of CSCL while both teaching and learning a language. Especially the role of interaction is really important, as teachers our mission is to make this interaction possible I think and there are some good sources for activities.

    Actually, I have some doubts about collaborize classroom is an ease for teachers with their heavy workload, because he or she need to create this platform first and then follow it very closely in order to include all the students.
  • Yelda Sarıkaya-Erdem on 17 Dec 13
     
    That may be a drawback for the teachers teaching different courses but time allocated for lessons are not enough to engage students in discussions and have every student voice their ideas. This is just an example. Teachers can use any other online platform to do this.
  • Evrim Baran on 18 Dec 13
     
    This can be used in the online classes. I taught several online and blended courses before. One missing element was the audio-visual cues in online discussions. I would be more inclined to use the tools that allow muli-modal interaction in an online platform.

    It is always said among Mathematicians that 'we are born to count' but what if we lost left parietal lobe? On the other hand, why are some people more gifted than others?

    I really like this website, which has research, current projects, seminars and conferences, and publications about Educational Neuroscience. And according to the website, its mission statement is to combine "strength in neuroscience, child development, psychology, and education research and its applications to education practise to establish a dialogue between researchers and educationalists to further translations of research into practise to improve education and well-being across the lifespan."

    As far as I know, sexuality concept is constituted in young children between the ages 2-3. This is why during infancy normally they don't have tendency to choose colour pink or blue. But it is really interesting. Why pink and blue? Why not green or red? It seems that some cultural issues are ossified.

    I am afraid I have already become a 'pancake person' :) because, I can access whatever I want with just a search button. I also feel like the author that something is changing in my brain in a negative way, becuase I do not have to force my brain anymore. Sometimes I realize that I have searched the same phone number over and over again then I really get mad at myself why I cannot just keep it in my mind, then again I realize that I do not have to as I have google with me everywhere I go:) And I think that is why computers seem smarter than us. Also, it is stated in the article that if we had all the world's information directly attached to our brain, or an artificial brain that was smarter than your brain, you'd be better off! I have lots of doubts about it. How something built by a human being can be smarter than a human being?

    I like these sentences from the text: "Once I was a scuba diver in the sea of words. Now I zip along the surface like a guy on a Jet Ski.". Because the way we read has changed with new strategies(scanning and scimming quickly) and a great deal of information. That's why we rather google it then reading hundreds of pages.(Or ctrl-f works pretty good in some cases:)) However, I do not think that we are getting more stupid. Our brain has been evolving with new technologies and habits and probably will keep doing that. So we are not so much eager to keep some information in our minds since we are sure that we can reach them anywhere anytime. For instance, children no longer memorize multiplying tables but it does not tell us that they can not solve multiplication problems.They have another instruments to save time and energy :)
  • Burcu Korkusuz on 14 Dec 13
     
    I agree with the ideas of Afra and Sinem. Sometimes I experience this while reading articles for my thesis and I have to write the key points for myself. However, I believe that we are not getting stupid, because we are now in technology era. We cannot abstain from appyling google for any information. It is really cost-effective in terms of time and money. I think that we will have to face with more new technologies in future, but this cannot mean that we will get more stupid. It is the requirement of our era we live in and we have to adapt ourselves.

    This is a how-to video, showing an effective way of supporting and promoting teamwork even out of class. It goes through the steps of the formation of random teams using Random.org and the allocation and naming of team shared documents using the blended synchronous/asynchronous facility of Typewith.me.

    You can find examples for the adoption of CSCL and its benefits like enhanced course content knowledge, increased confidence in applying course knowledge and skills, stronger collaboration skills (arguing ideas, making decisions, providing solutions), greater ability to create instead of simply consume knowledge and added benefits of leadership and presentation skills

    The researchers conducted DBR to develop a CSCL-based course and investigate the students' reaction to this innovation at SQU in Muscat, Oman. It is a nice example of DBR and applying CSCL.
  • Yelda Sarıkaya-Erdem on 17 Dec 13
     
    The outcomes: enhanced course content knowledge, increased confidence in applying course knowledge and skills, stronger collaboration skills (arguing ideas, making decisions, providing solutions), greater ability to create instead of simply consume knowledge, and added benefits of leadership and presentation skills, can also be applicable to our case. I think our course equips us with similar skills and outcomes.

    Good example of DBR and CSCL.

    We can think that in Computer Supported Collaborative Learning Environments has a pitfall in that it prevents the social construction of knowledge, interactive group learning and shared understanding. In the article, an intelligent CSCL environment is proposed, which is based on awareness about the others in the task and in the non-task context.

    I would like to share the music especially for the ones who are interested in practices for meditation or relaxation. This is the one which is used by one of the professors, Alev Yemenici, who does research and gives seminars on brain-based learning. While you are listening, please do not forget to close your eyes, sit back, take a deep breath and imagine how you feel when you remember one of the good moments you had before. Annnddd let this feeling spread over your body...
