CANVA EXPERIENCE

Hye everyone,😊

So, this week we learnt about using a new website which is Canva. Canva is a free graphic-design tool website. It has an easy to use drag-and-drop interface and provides access to over a million photographs, graphics, and fonts. It is used by non-designers as well as professionals. The tools can be used for both web and print media design and graphics.πŸ’•




My lecturer asked me to create our own design for Canva. She taught us how to insert image and all. At first, I do not know how to use the website. Then I watched some videos in Youtube how to create the infographic.  I try my best to use all the tools given most importantly I only searched for elements and tools that are free. I did about 'When Music Hits Your Brain'. The reason because everyone loves to listen to music and when I google about what music can do to our brain. I need to do the Canva for three timesπŸ˜€. The first I do it in two different slides, the second own I need to delete it because of the tools is need to pay. The last one I forgot to save and download. So, lesson learntπŸ˜€πŸ˜‚. However, it is quite fun because I really like to search for pictures and edit the tools thereπŸ˜‡. 
Below I attached together with the Canva that I created. Sorry it not creative. πŸ’’

EXPERIENCE CREATING POWTOON!

Hello everyone! for this whole week my group mates and I is very busy creating the Powtoon video. It is quite tiring actually. in other hand i really learnt lots in terms of crop the picture, using audocity and learnt to convert audio to mp3 format. As for me I really felt when I want doing this Powtoon it requires lots of time and creativity because you have to make the Powtoon looks very interesting with using all the tools provided. I really want to thank my friend Aida Afrina and Zafirah because they taught me lots how to use this application for example, in terms of downloading the picture, converting the audio, adjusting the time and import and export all the audio. We decided to create a Powtoon regarding dinosaur because it quite cool and many people did not know much about dinosaur. Next, we started to write the script first and try to practice with them. The funniest thing was when we wanted to record the script we have to many times because of some of us tend to laugh or too fast. I myself also need to retake the audio for a few times.πŸ˜‰  Apart from this we did our Powtoon video twice because the first one is to dragging because at first we came out with a concept but when we consulted with our lecturer she advise us to minimize it and make sure we put all the audio inside the video before we created the slide.πŸ’ͺ After that, we think again about how to make it more interesting and at the end, we came out with decision to re-doing the video. So we started from the basic, we record all the audio and created the slides and inserted all the audio and we tried our best to make it short but simple and also cute as our target audience is children of course this Powtoon need to be very interesting. Although it really tired and consume lots of our time but at the end we satisfied with our works.😊 The problem that I encounter during doing this Powtoon I did not not how to adjust the time and how to make the size of the shape looks bigger, when doing that I asked helped from my friends. But at the end although i'm not so good with it at least I know something and learnt a little bit about it with the helped from my lecturer and friends. Apart from that, the Powtoon apps is very slow and we have to wait for so long to edit for instance we want to change the font it requires 2-3 minutes. Basically, creating Powtoon makes my mind to think creatively and learnt lots how to make a video looks good!πŸ˜—

Hye everyone!
Basically this week I had learnt something interesting about Powtoon. Since before I really want to know how to use Powtoon because it looks very cute. Back then once I had tried to used it but just a simple one. When my lecturer said in a group of 3 we need to create a Powtoon and post it in blog.
Time management is very important in order to create this Powtoon to look very nice and then creativity needed. So lucky we are doing in a group so there will be endless idea. When doing this powtoon actually a great experienced whereby I had fun recording my own sound and when inserted in Powtoon using cartoon the sound is very cute. πŸ‘πŸ‘

FIFTH ENTRY (3 JULY - 7 JULY)

Using Podcasts and Digital Storytelling in Language Learning

As for this week we had learnt something interesting about podcast and the usage in language learning. To be honest I did not aware how this podcast will help in language learning but when being introduced its kind a cool tools to learn. πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•

πŸ’‹  A digital audio file made available on the Internet for downloading to a computer or mobile device, typically available as a series, new installments of which can be received by subscribers automatically.

πŸ’­ Basically we need some tools to create a podcast like smartphone, microphone & etc.

πŸ˜† I found throughout the lesson that actually podcast do help lots to language learners like me for example I can search any podcast regarding my subject that i really do not like to read as linguistics study. for instance podcast regarding morphology and i can enhance my understanding.

πŸ’£ Basically when i search in net there were lots of podcast from different genre and varieties of podcast in internet so if we want to hear any jokes just search it and you will find many.

πŸ’˜ Podcast in language learning can be implement in two ways listening to podcast and also create our own podcast 😊. It is actually new experiences to create our own podcast and edit it requires lots of patient. Plus, you have to know what are apps to edit the video and audio. I learnt lots because truly I did not know how to edit audio and video basically but yet I tried my best.

πŸ’† In a nutshell, there are many advantages using podcast in language learning actually. We can applied it in real life and learning language. I had been instructed to create a podcast by my lecturer and edit it using any apps like audacity & sound merge.

πŸ˜‰ I had learnt lots and tried my best to create this podcast with the guidance of my lecturer.
