DAY 8

July 16, 2014 Kaspar with is presentation about “Teaching Data Base for Teachers Using e-gradebook” show us the MyKoob . This is a school management system. In Portugal , the teachers have similar system. It calls INOVAR. But only works for teachers write student evaluations, schedule meetings, calling parents to school. The students can`t acess. After, Daiga came and put us thinking about what is “Learning to learn”. This is a sentences may be present every day in the life of the teacher, because nowadays education is no longer focused on the teacher and went on to be student-centered. So learning by lean may be present every day in the life of the teacher, because nowadays education is no longer focused on the teacher and went on to be student-centered. Learning to learn, before any objective, goal, or program curriculum, the teacher have plan their lesson and think first of a methodology that will enable their students develop skills and learning to learn. Ausma showed many clues to make a good presentation. I liked because sometime we need think and recycle our models of presentations. Devientar is a platform were artist can expo their work and participate in a community that accepts easily its own expression and uncritical . Today, with is enthusiastic presentation, Jãnis awake up that the artist was in me. “Web based tools form modern schools” was the tittle Edgars presentation. He give us some tools to transformer our class and way of teaching and become a “modernus teacher”.

Day 1

July 8, 2014 Today was the first day of presentations. The day started with a fantastic presentation of Peter who shared, with us, his preference for comics, specifically the Manga. I enjoyed listening him because I never heard about this type of comics. I was very enlightened and curious to understand more about its application in education.

I liked because made some pertinent issues that led us to think more on the disadvantages of excessive use of technology in the classroom and on the role that the teacher must have in class nowadays. Hana with your presentation Mind Map showed us a good tool for structuring knowledge learned in class. I think the Mind Maps can be applied as a way to study. As a teacher of the 1st cycle will use the mind map to teach / help students study learned content. Denisa showed us a set of tools that we can get for free on the internet and apply them in the classroom in various disciplines, making them more appealing and practical. Finally Marlene with virtual world `s impact on learning behavior showed us a practical way how the game can be a good way to develop the skills to work in groups.
