In our daily life, we use mobile phones
for several purposes like texting, surfing on the web, making calls and playing
games. Well, what about using them for education? Actually they are ideally
suited for this. And in my post I will talk about over this issue and I am
going to introduce an educational app that I choose. It is 
Duolingo. It is
designed for Android. It is very simple to use and it is very entertaining.
This application serves 23 languages, according to language that you speak you
can choose the language that you want to learn for example if you speak Turkish
then you can choose either German or English to learn and if you speak English
then you can choose a language in sixteen languages include Spanish, Italian,
French, Portuguese etc. Before starting to use the app, you should choose your
target language and after that you should choose your daily goal. By achieving
your goal, you gain presents and you can upgrade your level. By the way, you
can change the daily goal in time. After these, it is time to do the exercises.
The app includes a lot of activities such as translating the given sentence
into English or Turkish, writing what you heard and trying to pronounce what
you hear. It enables learners to enhance their vocabulary knowledge and improve
their speaking and listening abilities. If we want to use this app in classroom
setting, then we can set a target level for students and we can ask them to
complete it, by this way they compete each other and they learn in an
entertaining way.
