TEACH PERFECT'S BLOG

Hello guys! It's Neón writting for the last (but not least) time. Typing this, is really making me sad because it means it probably will pass a looong time until we see each other again. That's why, as it's my last experience, I wanted to take some time to thank everyone from the class I've been in. Specially to my groupmates. They have been so sweet and loving, and I've learned lots and lots of things with them during this journey. I just love them so very much because they are such good people with really big dreams and goals and a really big smile on their faces. I am such a lucky unicorn for having been able to spend time with this amazing people. I'm happy to say that out of all the journeys and places I've visited this year, my favorite destination is and will always be Murcia. But well... I promised to come visit soon, so please don't forget about me! This post became a little sentimentalist and I don't want to upset you! So that...

1. The informal learning is the one that happens in a non academic environment. It comes from the interaction of a person with its environment and with the interaction of this person with other people. For example: going to buy something and learn about economics. 2. Relationships at school constist of the bonds between teachers and peers, peers and peers, teachers and teachers, and beyond the classroom. Generally, the relationships at school are based on the contact with each other. 3. Feedback is an essential part of education and training programmes. It helps learners to maximise their potential at different stages of training, raise their awareness of strenghts and areas for improvement, and identify actions to be taken to improve performance. By feedback student feels that he/she is in the centre of attention of the teacher which is very important for self-esteem. 4. Organizational leadership is usually expressed in the effect on people's motivation to perform tasks...

Hi everyone, this week was the last task, and it consisted in finding the connections between things we have learnt and making a mind map to make a little presentation on Wednesday to every group. On Monday Linda explained the task and right after that we started dividing the documents to read them. In the evening we began to think ideas about how to make the mind map on the better way, and also to get the most important concepts from the document and their relations. Once we had the concepts and the idea for the mind map we went to buy the materials we were going to need for the mind map and we started drawing and preparing the things, and also writing a script for the presentation. On Wednesday we did the same as in the first week, we first listen to the presentation and then we were changing until we had seen every group’s work, but we had to do more than just listening, we had to find in the other presentations the connections that we had missed in our on work. After all the p...

This is how our great tree of references has been!!

In our last week we have had to connect concepts from School Organization and Educational resources because it is really important to get a Meaningful Learning and, by doing this, we can reach this objective. Also, by doing this we are practicing the dimension called relationship with learning because we are connecting previous knowledge with new one. We have connected many concepts and we explaied them on Wednesday. However, there were two concepts that were repeated a lot. That is the reason why we realize they are, probably, the most important in Education. The first concept was Teacher- Students Relationships. We all know this is crucial but we have found another dimension of the concept. Students are frommany different backgrounds, some of them have disabilites, others can't understand the language, the rest have problems such as stress or weakness in particular subjects. At the end, we have been any time students and we know that feeling although sometimes we forg...

Once again, we have visited and taken a look at our classmates teams' blogs in order to follow the development of their web pages and see how are they upgraded over time. From our blog we want to congratulate every single group for their continuous commitment with the tasks and the way they all make it so creatively and cool. Have a nice weekend and see you soon!!

We can find four leadership styles that are: authoritarian, participative, transactional, and transformational. Now we are going to explain each style with their advantages and disadvantages: We are going to start with the authoritarian leader, this is the person who give orders to other people which must do what this leader says and if they do it in a good way, they receive a reward but if they don't do it in a proper way they received a punishment because the authoritarian leader think that he or she is the unique person trained to do good things and to order properly and only their ideas are worth it. They have the power and the control, they think that their workers need someone to tell them what they have to do because they don't know how to think by themselves. Some advantages of this leadership style are that can be effective for those people who require vigilance to perform their tasks, as this prevents them from relaxing, and improves performance, productivity... S...

Hello there lovely readers!! It's Neón writting! This week I'm so excited!!  So, this week I was invited to the United States by Donald Trump himself, who I actually don't really like but I couldn't miss the opportunity and actually it was not bad at all. So I arrived to Washington and the fist thing I saw was the Whote House which is huge and amazing!! I really loved it and I had the chance to go to a really important conference where I took lots of notes about how the person talking was catching our attention and everything he used to make the message to get to us. I did this for the elections that were going to be hold in my class when I came back from the US, and I found this a really good opportunity to help our star a Little bit with some great advices. After attending to this meeting, I had the amazing chances of practicing my adquired skills by doing a little conference about my objectives if I was elected as principal of a school. Everybody loved it and when ...

Hello, Readers! On Friday, the 4th of May, we finished watching all of the rest of the videos about New Educational Law in Spain. Related to the previous task, Linda asked every single group about views and likes on facebook, instagram, twitter below the video of each group. Fireproofessors won the prize, they received the greatest amount of views. This week we had to read the text about basic leadership styles and then choose the star of the group who presented herself/himself as a candidate. On the 4th of May, every candidate of each group tried to convince us to vote for him/her for being the new principal of the school. We were listening to the candidates who had a lot of different offers and proporsals. They shared with us their point of views on how education system should looks like in their opinions. The campaigns were very strong and all of candidates were really charismatic. The battle finished with a big applause for all of the stars...

This week we have worked on different types of leadership. First of all we read some documents about it because we needed to know them as much as possible in order to choose the one that we wanted to defend on Friday. It was a hard task because all of them have their pros and cons. Firstly, we focused on Authoritarian Leadership which is based on strict rules and control. We thought it was interesting to take this severe type to defend how sometimes it is necessary. Nowadays, parents and grandparents are always complaining about the lack of discipline in teenagers. It is a reasonable argument because we can hear disasters caused by teenagers in the news. An example is the group of Granadan boys that were as bored as to set fire to a vagabond that was sleeping on a bench. These types of experiences make us think about if these teenagers had had a severe education during their childhood wouldn’t have thought on it because they learnt they have to be quiet and not to think weird i...

This week our teacher has proposed us to create a stop motion where we had to explain the ten key concepts that of the Decalogue developed by the platform #porotrapoliticaeducativa related to the basics for a new educational law in Spain. For this we first had to read the document and make a summary of the concepts and decide which were the most important ideas we wanted to show in our video. When we had already selected them, we had to think how we were going to represent them. We came up with different options such as using plasticine dolls, origami figures, drawings ... But finally,we chose to be our own actors and make it with photos because we thought it would be easy to make and the people would understand it better. We wrote a script explaining what happened in each scene and how we were going to record it so that everything was clear and we prepared everything we needed. Then we started to take the photos, while we moved very slowly so that the movement could...

    The Key Concepts of this week are the following ones: -La educación como un derecho:   universality   to the right of an equal and free education for all of us. The only way to guarantee the right to have a proper education is throughout a Public Education. -La Educación Inclusiva:   the basis of this idea is to consider the difference a valid resource, by accepting every type of diversity and making the the educational activity available to each individual. -Currículo sin idearios particulares: it defends the necesity of having an educational model not based or influenced by any religion, that teach useful things for the personal development, that accepts the variety of cultures, opinions and things that make us unique, that foster the open thought and the share of it, as well as the no competition or the ecological awareness. -Financiación garantizada constitucionalmente:   Education, as a fundamental right must be guaranteed ...

   

    Here's our group's stopmotion! Hope you enjoy it a lot!                                   STOP MOTION

 Hey guys!!!! It's Neón writting! How was your week? Mine was AMAZING!! I have so many things to tell you! So, this week I went to Finland! Yes! Finland! Can you believe it? It was the colddest place I've been so far. There was snow everywhere except for one day that was actually really warm for being Finland and I got to take my boat down the lake! It was so cool! I stayed on a hotel next to the mountains which shape was the most original I've ever seen! Can you guess?... Exactly! An igloo! I felt like a little penguin there! So, anyway, you are probably wondering why I went to Finland. The answer to that is that my groupmates told me about what they were going to do this week as a task and I liked it so much and was very inspired about the hagstag #PorOtraPolíticaEducativa that I started to search for information about it and everybody agreed that the best educational system was in Finland so I went there to know how they worked over there with my own eyes and shar...

This week we had to do a stop motion with the hashtag “#porotrapoliticaeducativa”, but first we read a document about educative politics. On Monday, in our organization class, Linda explained us the task and how to do it, and in the first hour we started sharing ideas for the stop motion. We had some ideas like using clay, or drawing, but in the end we decided to do it ourselves. In the second hour of the class we started thinking in a story for the video and after having lunch we looked for a class and we started recording. As we were making the pictures we had some new ideas to add to our stop motion and make it clearer. On Wednesday everybody had to present their stop motion as if we were in Eurovision and show it to the class.  Once that everyone had shown their stop motion the groups had to vote and give points to the other groups from four to eight and then a ten and a twelve. Firstly we discussed in groups who we were going to give those points and after everyone had it ...

After visiting and commenting all the blogs we have decided that Teachers Formation have a really update blog where you can find all the information really easily because it's really organized. Congratulations for your great blog!! About the videos of these week we must say that Fireproofessors have created an amazing story where characters from many tales had to live together in the same class!! It is really funny and we really enjoy watching it. Thanks you very much for your creativity.

    This week we did the second part of the 7th's task which was called "Complexity and Relationships." We read the text "teaching and learning in the digital age - Cap. 4". After Reading this text we were told what we had to do and we found it very interesting but complex at the same time. We found it interesting because we think that is a really useful thing to learn about these different aspects for our occupational future. This text go through some topics such as teacher-student connection, which is very important for us to take into account because, we, as future teachers have to be open-minded and ready for receiving student's knowledge and advices because the learning process is not a one way procedure but a rotative one. Another of the chapters from the text is the one which talks about connections with peers, which is really important because children of young ages and adolescent years are really influenced by their friends and classmates, so pro...

Like every week, on Friday 13rd, Linda upload on the LMS the task for this week. My group and I distribute the document to take a look for the Monday class. On Monday, at 9:30, Linda come to our class and started to explain this task. The task is part of the previous task of last week called “Complexity”, and now we had to work with “Connections and Relationships” in education. The different types of connections are: connections with peers, connections with parents, teacher-student connection, connections within the learning context and connections beyond the classroom. What did we do? We had to write a script for each type where we explained a situation related with this topic. On Wednesday, we were supposed to join with other groups to record this scenes, but Linda had a medical problem and she couldn't come to class. Neón was very sad because he couldn't show the class his pictures of his travel to L.A. Linda apologized to us that evening and told us to record them fo...
