Task 3: Translator

Hi there!

As the translator of this week’s task Telling stories: free resources and visual presentations, I have to develop the five main ideas Lovely teachers’ consider crucial.

First of all, we want to highlight that Creative Commons License help us share our copyright works. There are six kinds of licenses regarding the way we want others make use of our creations. So, if we want others to have access to our work, with credits to us and the possibility to change it, but not to have monetary benefits, we would use an attribution-noncommercial licence, for instance.

Secondly, a good presentation is the one that reflects the main ideas of the work, replacing lots of writing by images, videos and other resources that catch the audience’s attention. Important steps that must be taken into account in order to carry out an appropriate presentation include: simplicity (concise ideas are better than giving loads of details that could lead to confusion) and care (visuals will be easily processed if you make the public aware of the most important points through a set of techniques, such as contrast or hierarchy). Furthermore, this week we have been aware of the fact that slides with white spaces outstand the importance of certain ideas, so we do not need to fill them with irrelevant information.

Regarding the speech, we want to mention the importance of fluency. We need to have loads of knowledge about the issue we are talking about, but also on how to transmit it in an effective way. People who do not read, get straight to the point, encourage the audience to get involved and have fluency while presenting a topic are positively assessed by the listeners and keep their attention for longer. Being original is also paramount when doing a presentation. Once again, our aim is catching the public’s attention, but this time, with innovative ways, such as keeping people interested through our corporal expression or rhetorical questions.

We hope you have enjoyed this post and have a general idea of licenses and effective presentations. For deeper information, we will upload other posts related to this topic. However, if you cannot wait for them, you can also leave a comment asking any possible doubts!

Thanks for reading,

 Lovely teachers.

Task 7.2: Reflection

Hi everyone!! I am here again to make a brilliant reflection about this week's task called Complexity & relationships . As you know, last week we worked Complexity of schools , but... what about connections and relationships in school? After reading the chapter that Linda, our teacher, published for us, we got some general ideas about it. But, we got a deeper understanding when we had to think of some dialogues for making five short plays. On the one hand, we thought about reflecting creative fiction situations which included the different connections and relationships. But, thinking deeper, we realized they are not fiction situations, but real ones. This is mainly because, in our daily lives as future teachers, we will probably have to get through most of these examples we have created. And... we believe there is not a better way to understand it than putting ourselves in some real teachers' shoes. Unfortunately, it was not possible to play our sketches on Wednesda...

Task 2: Reflection

After reading what we had to do for the task of this week, we were asked for doing an information map based on the article related to what TPACK is. In the first moment, almost nobody would know what exactly is and what it is for. We guess Linda taught us this to introduce her students in the world of technology and to be familiar with some advances it brings. When our group had to decide what exactly to do, it was a little bit difficult due to it is not something common to do in this degree. However, when we all knew the official idea of what we wanted to present, we worked as a family. This is what we have enjoyed the most so, we have come to the conclusion that, probably, it was one of the main things Linda wanted to show us; the necessity to collaborate and work as a real team. Nevertheless, it hasn’t been so easy as it seems, because of several problems that needed to be solved and we didn’t know how to do it. As a result of doing this task, we are aware of the importance of ...
