The Digital Storytelling Work




I worked with Serra Salman in this project. I think it is a difficult project and it takes so much time. İts drawing, painting and narrating require much time so I think more time should be given for preparing homework.

EMMA WATSON İNTERVİEW





    Emma Watson was interviewed by Mark Lawson. She was playing Hermione Granger at Harry Potter's six movies. They did this interview before Harry Potter and Half-Blood Prince is the sixth book in the Potter franchise arrived in cinemas. She was 19 years old at that time and she had playing Hermione for ten years.




They talked about the character - Hermione Granger-, her childhood and her partners in the films and finally her giving up acting. The interview began with Mark Lawson's introduction about Emma Watson and then continued with a part of the conversation between Hermione and Harry in  Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie.





Mark Lawson firstly asked " in previous interviews Daniel Radcliffe and Timothy Spall who plays Peter Pettigrew in the Potter series had told me that they read the J.K Rowling novels as soon as they appeared to check out what they might have to do on the screen. Was Emma Watson the same?"
Emma said she read the books before she was a part of films and she was a big fun of books.






 He asked her questions about Hermione character. They talked about the extraordinary thing is that she had her whole childhood on film playing the same character. She thinks that it is amazing to be part of 8 big films and she is proud of this.



When they talked about Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) and Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley), Emma found herself  lucky because of having them.
Mark Lawson asked her whether she had a plan to give up acting or not. Emma definitely did not think to giving up acting.





During the interview Emma answered all questions kindly and honestly. The conversation between them went on very naturally. Finally he gave information about when the movie opened across the country at the end of this interview.

If I were a interview, I would love to ask her :

What the similarities and differences between you and Hermione?

Have you ever thought if you had not begun an actress, how would have you had life?

The Podcast Project - A Story

Firstly, I thought this project was very different  but then Bahar and I decided to do this project together. Actually, we enjoyed when we recorded our voices. However, it was difficult to use technology for us. I had  difficulty about recording but I have to say this project is very interesting. Besides, I would like to use podcast as a teacher because it is impossible that a teacher can hear every students' speaking and interest students' pronunciation. However, if a teacher gives podcast project his/her students as a homework, the teacher will have a chance to hear students' pronunciation. The teacher can even make a comment their pronunciation and errors in online way and this helps to prevent wasting time. On the other hand, I am sure students will have fun when they do this homework. Moreover, I can make a podcast as a teacher and tell them stories, make up games, have them do listening practice, and I  can help them to improve their listening skills. In this way I can make them more interested in English lesson. My partner is Bahar Özcan. We chose the option 3 and we created this podcast of our story.

The Word Describing Me



I think the best word describing me is funny. Because I enjoy life and living. I love laughing and smiling. Life is beautiful and we do not worry about anything. On the other hand, when people see the word I choose, I think they will be  surprized. Because people that do not recognize me can think I am serious, cold person. However, according to my friends, especially my best friends, I am really funny person. When my best friends fell unhappy, bad or hopeless, they call me and talk to me. They think that I make them cheerful,happy and optimist. I make them laugh so much.
