About Me


     Hi, and thanks for stopping by. 😊 

    My name is Muhammed ASLAN, I study English Language Teaching in Marmara University and I am the author of this blog. Since early on, I have been enthusiastic about technology as well as learning new languages. 

    Writing this blog gives me the perfect opportunity to do exactly that! As an educator and a tech advocate, I wonder how digital technologies can enhance the interactivity, accessibility, and effectiveness of language acquisition. 

    In this blog, I hope to publish insights, resources, and conversations on the new methods and approaches in technology and language pedagogy. If you are a learner interested in improving your skills or a teacher looking for fresh techniques to use, I hope you will find this information useful.

    Please share your ideas with me and do not hesitate to get involved in the discussions. The world of language teaching and learning awaits us! 🚀

The Digital Story Telling Project

Their father, the king, ordered them to go defeat a dragon. In the end, they learned some other things.      We began with a joint story writing session. After, we narrated and recorded the audio. Naz took the role of the narrator and I voiced the princes. To improve the cleanliness of our audio, we used  Cleanvoice AI  which is effective in background noise reduction.        With  Storyboard That , we created 34 different scenes which we termed visually as parts to a story. Using audio from  Pixabay , we searched for sound effects and music, especially medieval and fairy tale themed music to add more soul into the video.  Kdenlive  was used to combine the audio recording with sound effects, music, and ...
