Facilitating Operation "Murcingham"



Hello everyone,

I´m Cristina and I was the facilitator for Task 6 this week. 

The task to hand allowed us to combine various competences in order to create our own original activity. 

Selecting the competences was fairly straightforward as we quickly combined our four preferences. Having said that, bringing together the activities and linking the competences was certainly the most challenging part of the task. We debated and threw around ideas in a zoom meeting, several hours long as there were many details to take into consideration. There was no conflict nor mediation required as all team members listened and exchanged ideas easily and we came to conclusions together, although it took quite some time to come to our final idea. 

There was a shared feeling of confusion and slight frustration with the ICT tool of story maps as it was not easy to access, it took considerable time to load, as long as 25 minutes, and we could only enter one by one. This was probably one part where we had greater difficulty. 

Everyone was assigned mini tasks to do in-between our zoom meetings which were all effectively completed without delay. 

It was yet another productive week for the Go-Getters!

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...
