Representation

During the last Fall semester in R521 course, Scott, Megan, Kei, and I developed an instructional module for elementary school teachers to integrate comedy into their classes to improve students' engagement . After analysis of the effect of comedy on students' learning, we have understood that humor can reduce students' stress, provide  an equal teaching and learning environment, and increase students' motivation toward learning.

For this semester, we have decided to focus on the same subject. Therefore, our target audience is going to be 1-4 grades elementary school teachers. A new member, Peter, has joined our group. Our purpose will be helping the teachers to understand how to integrate humor into their classrooms to make a better student engagement. We will teach them how an why they need to use humorous elements. During this process, we have to be very careful because our audience will going to apply our ideas on some special groups. 1-4 grades students are very sensitive group. Therefore, our project requires a kind of professionalism.

I hope we will have great time with our project during the semester.

Thanks,

Remzi

Infographic Topics

Hi Everyone,

My infographic topics are as follows:

1. From master's degree to PhD degree graduate education process.

I believe this infographic will be very helpful to undergraduate students, especially for international students, before they apply to a program.

2. Who plays what in soccer game...

Soccer game is not as popular as NBA or football in the USA. I would like to create an infographic which explains the role of players with their positions in a soccer game.

3. IU Students' preferences of foods

I am worrying what kind of foods IU students like in terms of different countries' foods. I think is the funniest topic I chose.

I really need your feedback about my topics.

Thanks,

Remzi

Infographics Principles

Before I attended the class on Monday, I didn't know how an infographic can be important. I was thinking that infographics were only kind of design products in terms of people's perspectives. However, during the class and after the class, I figured out that infographics are very important design products because they have  principles and rules. Different infographics which were brought into class by my classmates and Dr. Glazewski, and Dr. Appelman's presentation helped me to understand the importance of designing an infographic. Also, after this week's class, I think infographics principles should be as follows:

• The information embedded into infographics should be relevant to purpose of designer for the infographics. 
• The information embedded into infographics should be easily readable. 
• In terms of visualization, colors should be consistent with each other.   

People Love Tablets (Infographics Example)

       

This is my second post on my blog page. I really like technology, so this infographic looks great to me for some reasons. First of all, each picture embedded into the infographic represents what the picture is about, especially the big picture of the tablet. Then, there is not much words to hinder visualization of the infographic. I think there is a coherence among colors. Briefly, this infographic example is relevant to what the designer wants to convey.

Introduction

Hi All,

My name is Remzi Kizilboga. I am a first year PhD student in Instructional Systems Technology at Indiana University Bloomington. This is my second year in Bloomington. In my first year, I attended Intensive English Program to improve my English skills. Bloomington is a great city for me. It is safer and cheaper. It has also many opportunities for students to socialize. Before I came here, I completed my master in Turkey. I have been also teaching in a public elementary school for two years. Actually, I love teaching so I really miss my teaching experience years.

My parents live in Turkey with my two sisters. I love them and look forward to seeing them again. After completing my PhD, I will go back to Turkey. My government wants me to work in a public university as a professor. Therefore, I want to go back and share my experiences in IUB with Turkish students. I believe that the courses related to instructional design will help me to better understand "What is instructional design?", How can I design an effective instruction?", and "How can I appropriately apply designed instructions?"

I look forward to a great semester with you all!

Remzi
