We have found this conference really interesting because it has shown us the reality of being a teacher who works with pbl. She also gave us her opinion about why is pbl helpful and why pupils learns more with it. She also told us to create a PBL all together, which allow us to get to know how it works. In order to make our project, we have been doing a research and we have found some examples of it:

Nowadays the world is changing and we are part of this world, that means, we have to innovate and follow the process. In this development is involve the education, which aspects are renewed, one of them is the PBL (Proyect Based Learning). When one school start with the process of the change is innovating and the rest around him could think is a bad idea, but what really happen is that not all the schools are prepared for the shift. When the parents and people observe this process of teaching, what they see are hapiness on their chlid, and activities out of the ordinary. That's would be a scheme like this one:                                                   But the reality is not the simple above, this process needs a guide plan done by one or more teachers, effort, steadfastness, imagination, and participation of everybody, so the final result is the easy part, what's scary people is reach the final objective. In other words, this huge scheme is more similiar to the re

Hello everybody!   We have proposed to make some changes in our blog to make it more attractive, for example, we will try to make it more  c o l o r f u l . So this week we start with this challenge ... We hope to achieve it !!! In today's blog we are going to talk about the Bloom's Taxonomy. Bloom's Taxonomy is a framework for establishing a hierarchy for educational goals.  It consist on six categories: Knowledge ,  Comprehension , Application , Analysis , Synthesis , and Evaluation.  T he first one, knowledge, is the necessary precedent for putting the rest categories into practice. The rest of them are classified as "skills and abilities". W e are going to insert an image in which the different six categories are explained. Its author, Benjamin Bloom , created it in 1956, but after, in 2001, his work was modified.  Here we leave the link of a video that explains this Taxonomy (its categories, its evolution, how to use it...)

 Today we are going to dedicate the post to talk about the PBL method and the CANVAS . Through the PBL we get tools that allow us to effectively incorporate innovation for teaching and learning. The CANVAS allows us to enhance creativity by designing learning projects easily and visually.  If we use the CANVAS in the PBL method, we can put in it how the project we want to do will be.  Here we leave an example of a template that could be used: Now, we are going to give an example of PBL in Spain, specifically in a school in San Pedro del Pinatar, there the teacher Marina Tristán, has carried out for eight weeks a work in which mathematics, social sciences and Spanish language and literature are linked. In this project 27 students participated, and each of them had to make their own diary. With this work the students learned and discovered many things, including constellations, interpreting maps, the usefulness of time zones ... Here we leave the links in which we

During this week we have been talking about curriculums and about how/when/what to teach or evaluate. These are tough questions for teachers because it is important to get their students focus on the subjet and make it interesting for them. In this blog entry, we would like to search some videos which we have found during our research about pbl. With the first one, we have been able to clarify our knowledge about projets. In the second one, it is seen the result of a project based on dinosaurs and how students have learnt about science and art.

        At the beginning of this week, we start with a simple but very important concept: Educational Planning, which is an instrument for quality improvent useful in the classrooms. In order to know the scope of this proyect each gruop of the class had to do their own Educational Planning for our ideal school, and after done it we presented for all our classmates, but also the teacher had the great idea of upload some of our ideas to the PADLET platform and that was de result:    https://padlet.com/acatuci/9tk2dvy7q2gk There we can see all the ideas of each school, as a whole are such a good proyect. Also we learnt the difference between INTENTION and ACHIEVEMENTS; that`s the daily live of a teacher, the first term refers to your plans, to the things you have chosen to teach and the way to do it; meanwhile, the second one concerns the reality, when you make your ideas happen into the classroom. Because what you plan is not always what really happen, and a good teacher is someon
