#NoTextB

Hello! I´m Irene, the journalist of this week.  There are the questions of the week:

•         What was the best part of the activity?  Definitely the best part was when we were looking for information on the subject. In Twitter we found in various sources of teachers and education professionals involved in giving their opinion on textbooks. We get a general impression of whether they were good or no textbooks for children. This research exercise helped us open our minds to a different form of education totally opposed to the traditional but no less effective.
•          What was the worse? I think that the worst part was realizing the economic relationship between the companies that want to get benefits and what really matters as education of children. We discovered that each child spend of year around € 300 in school supplies since the "right" is to follow the guidelines of a book. The society is blind to follow suit without realizing that there are other educational resources effectives less costly and more.
•          What was the best moment of the week (in the work of the group)? The best moment was when everyone got together the views and information that we sought in the different sources. We shared and discussed what each were thinking through this issue that will be an important issue when we start our teaching because each teacher is master of the way we disseminate the class.
•          What have you learn? We have learned that we need not to be a sheep in a herd; we see education as something different from the traditional. There are several ways to educate and we must seek the most effective to be education and learning for children to know not just cramming as in most cases. We are fully prepared to make a sort of alternative way, entertaining and fun.
• ·         What do you need to conserve –as a group- for the next weeks?  The organization that we had this week has been one of the best of the bunch and is something that we should continue in the next weeks. Perhaps it was the topic we were interested enough and so we made ​​the work more consistently. We have to follow this pattern of work we can improve.
•          What do you need to improve- as a group- for the next weeks?  We must have more concentration. We have to recognize that we are friends and we are easily distracted by anything. This is what we have to avoid wasting time does not benefit us nothing for the situation in the semester.

                                                                                                                                        Irene.
