Task 3: Reflection

This week we were told to enroll in a completely new adventure: Creative Commons License and knowing how to be a good presenter; and although it seemed an easy task, with its development we discovered it was just a myth. We see this activity has had many benefits for our development as teachers, since nowadays the fact of respecting others work online or exactly knowing how to teach something without boring is not taken into account. Many teachers usually feel lost when trying to give a lesson using digital media such as PowerPoint and they do not realise, most of their students are sleepy during their speech. Moreover, internet is also a marvelous tool for sharing music, pictures, videos…; but also for “stealing” them. Yes, I say stealing because many students nowadays do it without knowing when they pick pictures or videos for their projects at school. Due to this two things, we extremely feel this project is crucial for us to know, due to the fact that in the future we will be teachers who will need to put this theory into practice in the right way.

Talking about the work of the group, we all agree we have tried our best for the right development of this task and we are really happy with the work done. However, we also know we need to improve our originality, because when we saw our peers’ job we highly considered this week we have forgotten our originality, but we promise to recover it next week!!

On the other hand, we would also love to highlight, we are really happy with our team! Working together is our thing, and although issues are a normal fact in every task, we can say so far we have done the activities proposed with ease!

To conclude, I really want to thank our teacher Linda for giving us the opportunity to discover how to give interesting and “cool” presentations using Creative Commons Licenses properly because although now it can seem out of context or even a nonsense, it is essential for being the effective teachers we want to become in the future.

Stay tuned!! ;) L.T. ♥
