Timely updates via "RSS"


Hello everybody! I am here with another topic in this week again. It is "RSS" which is generally called as Really Simple Syndication. What is it? Let me explain it for those who do not know about it. It is something for delivering regularly changing web content. I chose to use Feed Reader. Before I began to take my lesson Teaching Techniques and Materials Desing, I was unaware of its existance. Thanks to my teacher Gökçe Kurt, now I can profit from this perfect tool. You may ask me why I regard it as an excellent stuff so if I should explain the reasons, I can say these :

-You are provided with timely updates from your favourite websites as a result you do not have to manually check those sites in order to see if there is a new content or not. By this way, you gain a great deal of time.
-You can collect data from so many sites. When you open it, you meet with a rich view.
-You can simply scan through the headlines and decide to which ones you will spend your time.

By the way, I would like to mention one of the bloggers I follow: Lisa Nielsen-the innovative educator. She says that she found school boring and irrelevant and that ticked her off; she writes that blog to share ideas to help change that for others. When I read her this about me section, I immediately thought that I could find interesting things which may change my thoughts about education or help me improve my process and started to have a close look at it. You can also glance at her blog by clicking here.

Additionally, I put my feed reader's screenshot here in case those, who do not know it, may want to see what it looks like. See you soon!
