Project Based Learning

Hi everyone ! 
This week we had to work on Padlet. At the very beggining I did not understand anything. I was totally out of my depth, but with the help of my friends I handle it. Generally it was a nice experience . Another thing we had to do was to read about Project Based Learning . Project-based learning is a dynamic classroom approach in which students actively explore real-world problems and challenges and acquire a deeper knowledge.Students gain knowledge and skills by working for an extended period of time to investigate and respond to an authentic, engaging and complex question, problem, or challenge.Students make their project work public by explaining, displaying and/or presenting it to people beyond the classroom. It looks quite interesting method because it makes schools more engaging for students. As well project based learning provides opportunities for students to use technology.

ABCD objectives/ HOT POTATOES exercices

Hello my friends ! I know I am a bit late to give my impression to the task of this week, but as someone told me today better late than never. I read a lot for the ABCD objectives and I realized that it wasn`t something we haven`t heard before. The most important thing for ABCD objectives is that they  must be both observable and measurable to be effective. Organizing a lesson hour based on ABCD objectives help teachers to focus attention on important task and information, to choose appropriate instructional and learning strategies etc. Exercices were that part of the task that takes me a lot of time. It was quite difficult to deal with them but at least I did it.

Cooperative learning

Hello class. I just saw the videos of Kagan Method and I can say that I find it quite impressive. It was a method very different than the methods that we are used to. Kagan method brings a total transformation in the classroom. In my opinion cooperative learning is the best way to teach new thing to students. The students are in the center of teaching process and the teacher plays mostly the role of instruction and advisor. The structures of Kagan Method can be used in every level, from preschool to college students. Using of this structure will improve all the major skills of students, and as well enhance social skills and social relations. I would like to work with this structure in my future because I see very helpful as a method to manage a class even if it has a large number of students. This structure gives the students opportunities to learn things in a more practical way rather than just learn by heart.

Hello everybody. I have heard the term blogg a lot of times,but I never thought one day I would have a blogg too. At the very beggining it seems greek to me everything teacher told as to do, but I think I am on the right way. It is important to get involved on it in order to understand the way how it works.  It looks a very interesting method to deal in a class with many students, and I think this is going to help us a lot in our future as teachers-to-be. Technology is always  neccesary in our life and specially in nowadays. I am glad that we have the chance to learn how to use it in the class and for the class. I wish all of you my friends good luck. Take it easy and enjoy the blogg,at least it is not as difficult as it looks .
