Jounalist of the week

Hi everybody!
I am Natalia and I am the journalist this week.
On Monday we didn't have class with Linda because she was feeling sick and she couldn't come to the university until twelve o'clock and the School organization and educational resources had just finished. So, for this week we didn't have to do any work because next Wednesday is the exam of this subject and we had to prepare and ePortfoloio in Google sites. We were working on it all Monday morning and afternoon until very late. Then, we met up again on Tuesday to finish the ePortfolio but also for preparing our oral exam by groups.
On Friday, it was the last class with Linda on both subjects (school organization and educational resources and Research and ICT) so we were asking her some doubts about the ePortfolio and about the two oral exams that we are going to have in the next three weeks. After that, she said to us some words that were really moving because she said us that we must never loose our motivation and fresh thinking, that we must continue learning English but we do it really well.

That's all for this course and this is how our first year at university finish :)

See you and I hope you liked our work!
Best wishes and good luck

Journalist summary

HI! I´m Antonio Luis, the journalist of the week, and I´m going to make a summary of our week.


Firstly, on Monday, we were talking about Educational system, but in a special way. We tried to compare our educational system in Spain with others, concretely with Finish educational system. We saw a video in which people, who appear in the video, try to explain how education works in Finland. They talk about the timetable, the budget, the schools...


After watched it, Linda asked what are the difference that we saw in the video between both system. After each one, she made a reflexion about the situation in Spain and the situation in Finland. For exmple she talked about the difference in the timetable (Finish students have a 15 minutes break after each class); she talked about the languages ( they study three languages at the same time)...


We could talk about many topics, and maybe, the conclusion, after know the situation, more or less, in both countries, could be that we should imitate Finish educational system, because they have better academic results, students like that they do, so they didn´t have problems about scholar failure... There are many reason which say that Finish system is better than Spanish one. lso, we have to say that it isn´t only better than Spanish system, mybe it could be the best system of Europe.


On Friday, we had a funny class. Firstly, we were talking about the kind of oral exam question. This is important to know because we can prepare better our exam. Then, Linda asked us for a favour: We had to record some videos.


Those videos are going to be part of an dvertisement which try to animate teachers to go to a Pechackucha season as every year. The season consist of some presentation make for several teachers who talk about some topics. The main idea is that those presentation have to be in a Peachakucha way and try to do the meeting nicer.


We had to record the following sentence: "20 slides; 20 second". It was so funny.


That´s all about our week! Write you soon

Analyst' questions :)

This week we have made three different activities so I am going to try to analyze all of them: the first one was the videos about the Finnish Educational System, the second was to revise the question for the oral exam and the third was making some videos for a conference. Let's go!

What was the worst part of the activity?

I think that there wasn’t any bad part in any of these three activities because we have learnt about other educational system and about the exam we are going to do next 23^rd of May.

 

What was the best moment of the week (work wise)?

The best moment of watching the videos was to learn how works the education in other countries and how different it is! The best moment of the questions about the exam was to know how it was going to be exam and seeing that it won’t be as difficult as we thought. Talking about making the videos for the conference I think that we spent a lovely time together as a group class and we supported each other.

 What was the worst moment of the week?

In my opinion, the worst moment of the week was when we realized that the Spanish Educational System is not as efficient as it should be. We must see how other countries are working in terms of education because they had better results.

 

What have you learnt?

I have learnt about the Finnish Educational System and about how important it is to conserve in mind that we are a group of people who have the same interests and we need to help each other.

What do you need to conserve as a group for next week?

I think that we know how to enjoy ourselves when we are relaxing while doing the work.

What do you need to improve as a group for next week?

I think we must meet up more frequently together because it is really difficult because of we live in different places and it is very problematic.

See you next week and the last one! :)

Roles for this week!

Hello everybody :)
Here we are another week more. The roles for this week have been the following ones:


-Star: Esther del Pino Garcia
-Journalist: Antonio Luis Quiñonero Martinez
-Facilitator: Rebecca Jade Terry
-Tracker: Berta Asis Gil
-Analyst: Natalia Avilés Puerta


See yooou!

Hello everybody! Its Beckie and I was the analyst for this last week. It has been a bit strange this last week as on Monday I couldnt come in as there were no buses back from my village but no problems as my group has told me that Linda explained ICT and not school organization! So as the analyst, I only have to comment what we done on Wednesday, which was the last day of Snakes and Ladders!! GAME ON!

 

What was the worst part of the activity?

The worst part of the activity was probably trying desperatly to find the last few questions for the trivial cards as we had just run out of ideas! That and losing the game!!!

 

What was the best moment of the week (work wise)?

 The best part I think was when we were all working as a group and we were all so very concentrated and the work seemed to be more easier. Although sometimes we just had to stop and laugh as we got tired and couldnt think of anything! There was even a moment when we started looking up funny videos on YouTube and muffin recipes on Google! It was a real laugh, all the works we do are! And we know know never to meet up on a Friday and to always do our tasks in the morning, as when it gets to the afternoon we just do not function properly!

 

What was the worst moment of the week?

The worst moment was definatly losing the game. We knew all the questions so well and to lose and be so close to winning was just horrible.

 

What have you learnt?

I think everybody has leant many things thanks to the way Linda organized this game as we all wanted to win so we all had to know the answers to the questions, resulting in studying them without knowing! I have definatly learnt many things about laws, schools, timetables etc and I have had fun by doing so! Studying by playing... who knew??

What do you need to conserve as a group for next week?

Our teamwork definatly as we all supported each other throughout the whole game, especially on Wednesday when we had to end it all. And although we didnt win, we still support each other.

 

What do you need to improve as a group for next week?

I think maybe organization. I think we honestly need to be a bit more organized.
