4 potentialities, 1 story

Hi there! 😊 We are Santi and Elena and this week we are the stars of our group. We are going to explain you how do we have exactly carried out this task: First of all, on Thursday's face to face lesson we had to choose which type of comic or story we would like to develop in the third week's task. We must admit that our group didn't come to an agreement at first, but then we consider Photo Novel as the best option for us. Fortunately, any other group chose it before. Then, we had to look for an Internet tool which was as useful as possible. Our initial thought was to use the webpage www.smilebox.com , but it was difficult to use since it didn't let us move the images and the speech bubbles. Finally, we decided to use Canva as it was more adapted to our necessities.

Elena had a misunderstanding as s...

Facilitating Week 3

Hello everyone! It's MarΓ­a facilitating the week since Tuesday πŸ’– This week has been fantas-TIC! Lesson about comic started on Thursday, as we were finishing ACAD and TPACK on Tuesday's lesson. On Thursday we decided which format we were using for our comic. To do so, facilitators raised hands and randomly we chose each format; in case of our choice we made it by quickly texting out preferences via whatsapp and eventually an agreement was made: we would made a photonovel. There has not been any major problems during this week, we decided to read all text and then we would brainstorm all our ideas and opinions about the 4 main points Lemke addresses. And so we did, after a Zoom meeting in which we decided which website we would use, everyone had clear which part of the text he/she should do...all hands on deck!πŸ‘ We set a time for all comics to be finished and everyone submit his/her on time. However, a trifle came up as we were aware of the fact that we hadn't agreed a type...

Analysing the third week

Hello! I am Antonio, and on this week 3, I have the role of Analyst, so let's begin.😎 First of all, I would like to start talking with our team's final reflection, in which is specified in the next couple of questions: The best part of the activity was the main fact of developing the comic. In our case, we selected the format of comic called photo novel, which has been a good starting point because it has allowed us to develop funny situations! We have discovered a lot of online resources wich we can use on our advantage, and of course developing a comic is a fun part, especially if you know how to create all kind of different situations in a story with remarkable characters. Nevertheless, the worst part was obviously related to all the part of adjusting information to a photo novel, The main activity was to relate a pdf of Cheryl Lemke that talks about innovation through technology to a photo novel, which for an obvious reason, it has been pretty confusing and difficult, bec...
