reflection of learning and using wordle, smmry, and topicmarks

As we all know, the courses which university students are taken are required to read long form content texts and write a comment or summary about them.İf we consider that we have to take a lot of courses, and also so many assignments are given to us, the links: wordle, topicmarks, smmry are will probably help us by facilitating and accelerating doing our tasks. Moreover, these links provide  the instructors to expand, enhance and improve their teaching methods. According to me, using the links which are mentioned above are useful tools in order to develop our skills and learn effectively. In addition, it provides us to do much more assignments in limited time.

Learning with media

I have chosen ''Learning with media'' as my research topic to indicate and to expose the benefits of multimedia  in learning foreign language or gaining any knowledge. I think learning is not simply a passive to response to instruction's ''delivery''. Rather, it is an active, constructive, cognitive and social progress. Therefore, learner should manage strategically available cognitive, physical, and social resources to create new knowledge by interacting with information in the environment and integrating it with information stored in memory. I also concern about this topic because my professional interest is closely with how to teach effectively. Furthermore, it involves my personal interests in terms of the way my daily life. That is, constant contact with my friends, searching for research, and using social network-sites are possible with any forms of multimedia. At the end of this research, I hope to learn what impacts of using media as an instructional tool in teaching foreign languages to young learners or adults. Beside this, I expect to improve my personally by using the media practically and to promote my professionally by learning many useful information related with my profession interest. I have encountered some problems while I have been searching my research topic via internet. One of these is I wasn't able to manage how to abbreviation. Another one is I couldn't download the information which I exactly need. Thus I had to spend much more time on downloading than writing.
