                            LET'S IMPROVE THE WORLD WHILE                          
                                     IMPROVING OUR ENGLISH

    Hello again English travellers!Today we have an incredible idea of improving the World and it only takes 60 seconds.:))That simple.. This is a co-production of Turkan and Ebru and by clicking the link you may listen to our podcast..
   Podcasts can be used  in every level of ELT yet ours is suitable for intermediate students.Podcasts provide a large flexibility to the teachers and a very authentic material..They can be easily prepared by the teacher or can be adopted many kinds from the internet..Today we came up with an inspiring idea to make the World a better place to live and explained it in 60 secondsThe main idea was simple yet striking:each family living in the city would adopt a Street cat until non exists outside and the government would support thıs wıth tax reductions to these families.Teacher is the main source for the students.By creating such podcasts and encourage the students to create their own ,can improve their listening skills,speaking skills and ends up improving the writing skills as well.Using podcasts is an all-purpose  task based activity which all teachers should benefit to create new horizons  in a small classroom.
 While preparing our podcast we didn't face too much trouble ,many tools can be found in the internet to create a  rich content..A teacher  with a limited knowledge of computer programming can also use these tools easily..So don't hesitate to use podcasting and bring the World to the feet of your students..See you on the next post./you can see my pair's page here
