İdiye Ökten

For the love of learning and teaching.

I have worked with technology in education for about thirty years. At Herkese Eğitim I share free resources for teachers, students and anyone else: tools that open on the classroom board, workshops built on Turkish curriculum outcomes, three-second quiz questions, a Turkish proverb series and special-day videos.

My first job, in 1997, brought me into education. Herkese Eğitim was first the name of a project we entered in the education category of the TEKNOFEST Technology for Humanity competition in 2018. During the pandemic, in the summer of 2020, we met with teachers every evening for 15 days, under this name. Each day we looked at one web tool; the articles appeared on Bilim Şenliği and the how-to videos on the YouTube channel. More than a hundred videos on Padlet, Wakelet, Wordwall, Edpuzzle, Quizizz, Flipgrid, Mentimeter and others were collected on a Wakelet board. Now it is the name of this library. In the age of AI, the sharing goes on.

Claude is my teammate in this work. ♥

Old wisdom, new technology.

Rooted in education, Herkese Eğitim works to spread the use of technology done well, ethically and where it fits. It aims to make people’s work easier and to help them be more productive and build more meaningful lives.
