Activity 1

TPACK

A.- General description:

This activity was the first activity of the course. With this one we have learn some aspects of the education, the pedagogy, content and knowledge.

Since it was the first activity we didn’t know how it was going to be, what should we do, say… we didn´t know anything. The star of that week had to explain to each one of the rest of the groups what she had learnt and understand about the concept of TPACK.

B.- Product:

The explanation of the star was supported by a poster made by her and Elena Sanchez where we explained this concept with three circles with made the fourth circle in order to have a TPACK concept, and we also included different words according to each part of the TPACK (eg, Technology- Mass Media.)

In our case we did a poster with three circles and in the middle of them the concept of TPACK, with drawings and a word related with each circle (e.g.: TPK Mass media) and like this with each concept.

C.- Roles:

Mª Luz-Analyst, Carmela-Star (10), Miriam-Journalist (9), Alba-Boss (8), Elena Rivera-Farmer (8), Alejandro (6) y Elena Sánchez (10) – Translators.

D.- Self evaluation:

Alba Yelo should have 8 because she was the boss of the week and  she focused the activity very well, she told us what we should  do and she helped us in everything that she could.

Alejandro Orenes: This week was the first week of the course and he didn´t know what to do and how to it well. He was the only man of the group and it at the beginning he was a little bit insecure.

I think that the mark of Carmela of this week should be 10 because she did the exposition and she also prepared the poster. She was very nervous and she did her best in order to do it as well as possible.

Elena Rivera: that week she had to do the first pearltree and it was very difficult because none of us knew how to use it and she had to looking for information and saw some tutorials because of that her mark is 8.

Elena Sánchez: she worked a lot, she was the translator but she did the poster with the star and it was very helpful for her.

The mark of this week for Miriam is 9 because she supervised the post of each of us in order to avoid grammatical mistakes improving our own level, and the level of the group. She also did very well the work of her role that week.

E.- Group evaluation:

The group mark is 9 because all of us had worked a lot doing our best, asking all of our doubts to each other and also to the teacher. But I think that the most important thing is that we understand this concept perfectly and we know what TPACK is.
