Speed dating Stars

Hi there! 😉

Welcome to week 2 of the Resources and ICT subject. This week the role of star has been shared between Antonio and María as we are 7 team members, and we must admit our first initial contact has been in style!

We started the week deciding which model, ACAD or TPACK, would each of us work with; however, when the questions about them were answered, we realised the presentation could nor be done in such way, as we thought our audience could have difficulties in following the presentation. This way, we decided the most suitable way for us to do the presentation would be by dividing the questions randomly.

It has been really useful for us to have a teammate to share this role with, since any time either of us had a doubt, he/she reached the other and unertainty dissapeared. Apart from this, we have been working together since last September so we already knew each other, and most important, we knew how the other works, so teaming up has not been difficult at all.

As the presentation date approached, we were preparing our speech as weel as we have been able to, and, personally, it became absolutely fantastic! Some examples of it have been our classmates comments: "The presentation was soo good ", "Very clear and natural" - said Victoria and María from FantasTIC girls team, or "Very good language" claimed Paula from Happy Flowers. These really made us feel very proud of ourselves, the work developed during the week became really rewarding!

On the other hand, we have also got some things our classmates thought we should improve. Ana María said: "It could be better if they were pointing where we were, in order to place ourselves at each moment" and we must admit she might be right. Being the firsts doing something is not easy and we believe nerves made us forget about our poster, so we will definitely keep this in mind for future presentations.

Well... that is all on our part, we hope you have a great week!


María and Antonio

Translating the Task

Good morning to all and welcome to the home stretch! I am Santiago García-Purriños and I will be the translator this week. I will select the five concepts that I consider most important during the development of this task number nine. The first concept that I consider important is the meaning of frameworks, it is a kind of library, a piece of software that provides web developers with a code base and consistent, standardised ways to create web applications. Throughout this task, pedagogical knowledge has also played an important role. Pedagogical knowledge consists of adapting the specialised knowledge of teachers for creating effective teaching. Technological pedagogical content knowledge is a framework for understanding and describing the types of knowledge a teacher needs for effective pedagogical practice in a technology-enhanced learning environment. Education is a field where digital content has become increasingly popular as well as necessary. Professionals in this field are rea...

Star(ing) to the finish line

Hii! It is Gema and Elena, the stars of the last week ☹️ First and foremost, if you would like to check our infography, please click here! Throughout this week, the whole group has pitched in to create an infography about the main competences for the Digital World.  To be honest, the presentation didn't go as bad as we initially thought it was going to be, in fact, we managed to explain all the items and our classmates actually understood it very well, which actually pleased us a lot. Actually, it is nice to leave with a nice memory of this week as we have put plenty of effort to our weekly tasks (not just this one). Just in case you are not familiar with this model we let you here a very brief explanation and reflection about what is it and its importance for teachers. Almost all frameworks emphasize the use of technology, restricted to teaching in the conventional classroom, and the ethical and social aspects only from the legal use of technology or security. After reading the do...
