Final Thoughts on Open eTwinning

What have you learnt from the course?

This course taught me the value of collaborative and cooperative work. It's not an easy achievable  goal, but a responsable teacher must be able to take up the challenge.

And so I adopt the suggestion that

"COMING TOGETHER IS A BEGINNING,

KEEPING TOGETHER IS PROGRESS,

WORKING TOGETHER IS SUCCESS"

Henry Ford

What are the positive aspects of the MOOC?

I took part in many MOOC and I can say that this course has its positive aspects such as moderators (Cristina, Yolanda and Diego), methodology, collaboration, as well as materials.

In particular I have appreciated P2P activity, a real opportunity of professional growth.

It is really about identity, diversity, cultural confrontation, in the best sense of the word.

What are the negative aspects of the MOOC?

I strain to see negative aspects, really!


What would you suggest to improve it?

I would like to suggest to carry on like this in the future, keeping up the pressure on this issue in an eTwinning group on platform.

My final work

I have learnt a lot by moderators and all colleagues  involved in the course.
And so this is my final work.

Created with Padlet

My P2P activity for week 4 in Open eTwinning course.

In week four we have to  design an activity following these three criteria:

Ø     Collaboration

Ø     Concrete final product

Ø     Relation to the objectives of the project draft in the previous module

So I introduce an activity to develop at the beginning of the project, in particular in the first of work phases, in which students of different ages and from different countries know themselves. It’s a way of breaking the ice and creating the right spirit of collaboration and cooperation.

Each student is invited to present himself/herself by a collage with few images that represent who they are, what they believe in, something about their personality and talents.

They are invited also to upload their collages into a Padlet, just as it you can see below.

Created with Padlet

Finally they have to go to a dedicate forum and comment at least two of their partners’ collages, finding some inspiration in a toolbox (in particular adjectives to describe personality) built collaboratively by students and teachers as a wiki and available in the twinspace.

Elder students realize tutorials to teach younger students to use simple tools to collect photos (Kizoa, but also PhotoPeach, Pizap, Pickmonkey, Befunkly…).

The project I'm designing begins here and it's a project of digital storytelling; it continues in other phases and expect the realization of an e-book and some customazed novels by Storyboardthat  collaboratively created by all students involved.

A magic week-end

Thanks to Dr. Nellie. She is my online teacher and my mentor. 

And congratulations to all winners.
