Hi everyone!
This week we have done an interesting practice
called Pecha Kucha,
It consists in a creative, clear and concise
presentation that uses 20 x 20 format, twenty slides for twenty
seconds. The presentation was in pair and each star had to explain clearly a slide within 20 seconds.
We did a lottery in class to see that issues that
Linda had chosen we played to each group. We had to do “Wiki
Animals”, a project designed to make by searching for information
on animals, as well as cultural enrichment, more self-sufficient to cope when looking for information, using computers, creating templates and so
on. .
Finally the wikianimal’s
project permit us to discover that another way of doing things is possible. Improves students' internet in
very early age, and best of all, it is a project
to be spread around the world, and is now part of countries in South
America and,not least, in different languages, which are: German, English,
Castilian and Catalan.
To prepare the work,
Linda explained the guidelines to be followed to create a good presentation. Overall
the presentations were clear and concise but with some exceptions.
In short, we learned a
new way to make presentations in a fun and creative.

| How we prepared our Pecha Kucha. |
To complete
this research work, we will discuss the presentations of other class groups,
granting punctuation to each one, where 12 will be the maximum and 5 the
lowest.
· Broken
dreams: (The Beatles). The first one had a small problem, they presented 26
slides and we had to wait for your presentation.
Secondly,
the Power Point had too many words, and it was not clean and clear, and
finally, not introduce the slides in time.
Our
punctuation to them was: 5
· The
Chalks' Drivers: (Matemáticas sin tiza). This group was fine, as it was
very full of information, with many examples, and one of the most important
things in our opinion, is that they contacted with the teachers, the creators
of this project. The only drawback we could see, was that plenty of time on
some slides.
Our
punctuation for them is: 6
· I know what you did: (Viajar virtualmente). In our opinion this
was the best group, the explanation is perfectly understood, the power point
was full of examples, and they also contacted with the teachers and introduced
a video for explaining it.
The time per slide was correct all the time.
Our punctuation to them was: 12
· Never
too late: (Gymkhana: SOS endangered animals). This group was worse, on
every slide lacked time of explanation and spoke too fast. A bonus was that
their English was very correct, and the photos of the slides is very well
suited to the context.
Our
punctuation to them was: 7
· Color
chameleons: (Parlamento), it was a bit repetitive, they talk a lot about some concepts. On the other hand, they distribute so good their time and at the end they finish their exposition with a vey good conclusion.
Our punctuation to them was: 8
· Hakuna
Matateros: The last one and problably one of the best ones, with a very good presentation (Powe Point), good picutres and so complet with also a good explanation.
Our punctuation to them was: 10
During this
week, and working with the project realised by Mª Felisa Jodar Foz (primary
teacher), we have realised, that lot of projects like the Wiki Animals one
(which we have worked), are being made around Spain, nowadays, we still have
teachers worried, concerned about teaching, which seek to adapt it to the times
we live, working and including all technologies we have to make it easier (they
include media in their teaching and curriculum implementation). Not everything
is done, and not everything is on the books.
1. What was the best part of the activity?
Know the
several projects that are being realised in our country, being so interesting
and varied. Listen our peers explaining theme to us, see how their power points
were.
2. What was the worst?
Discover that
is a pity that there are a lot of projects, trying to introduce media, but
these aren’t enough, we have still more teachers who don’t try it.
Realized
that we hadn’t work enough, we didn’t understand what did we have to do and
most of the presentations were better than our.
3. What was the best moment of the week
(in the work of the group)?
Always, the
best moment of the week, talking about the work of the group is when we met
during the week, trying to organize us, we are so close friend and we enjoy a
lot the little time we have to be together.
4. What was the worse?
Realized
that we hadn’t work enough, we didn’t understand what did we have to do and
most of the presentations were better than our.
5. What have you learnt?
Apart from
the importance of media in our diary teaching, and how these projects are, we
have also learnt that we don’t work enough, or not in the correct way.
6. What do you need to conserve -as a
group- for the next weeks?
Our
friendship, our good relation, and the possibility to say things clear without
bother us.
7. What do you need to improve –as a
group- for the next weeks?
What I have
said before, we need more work, we get easily distracted and sometimes our good
relation is a problem, we start to talk about something else and we forget what
we are really doing, loosing time.
Mª Felisa Jodar Foz, teacher of TIC in Ateneu Instrituctiu Primary School since 2003. Is the coordinator and webmaster of the center.no
Felisa is a teacher who thinks that the education is not stagnant because there is a new educational movement characterized by the news technologies and the media. It exists a new form to see the education, where is not always necessary use the books because the technology can replace them.
Finally she thinks that a new kind of education is possible. The education of the century XXI.
Here we have some photographs of our presentations.
