MINDMAPING THE TOPIC

What's up mates!!

Today I am bringing you a very interesting and useful tool! Not only it'll help your students to understand the lesson better and organise the concepts but also it is going to make your explanations easier to carry out.🎉🎊🎉

I am talking about MIND MAPS!! and in this case I'll recommend you MindMeister that is the one that I used to do this example!!

Is not difficult to work with it, but you will need to create an account. Then just follow the five steps given and you will get it. 👍👍👍

I'll tel you step by step how I did mine!!

-First, I decided the topic I wanted to carry out. Main european landmarks

-Secondly, I wrote the main idea or word of the topic

-Third, I linked the main idea with the secondaries through different branches or arrows, adding images and a YouTube video.

After completing the mind map I clicked on the sharing button and copied the link and the embedded code as you can see bellow.

Main European Landmarks by Agustin Aira

My experience doing it was good, but due to the fact that I am using my laptop without mouse sometimes it was a little bit difficult to link the images' URLs to the word written in the chart. On the other hand I have to say that I enjoyed a lot this challenge, I learnt a lot doing it, because I did not know that it can be possible. So for me everything was new.

Ok, now I am going to talk about the pros and the cons that I could find using this online tool.

As pros I can say that is a very intuitive tool, it's free (the limited version) and it has a several options to include audiovisual resources.

As cons I would say that the free version is quite limited, sometimes it doesn't allow you to select images and stick them in the chart.

Nevertheless, I will recommend this tool and I will encourage you to use this kind of resources in your classes because it helps a lot your students.

In the case of my class, after seeing the topic I will bring my students to the European Park in order to see the miniature of the monuments learnt.

Ok friends!! That's all for now!! I hope you find this information interesting and useful!

SEE YOU SOON!!! Origami Wave

STORYBOARD FOR A DIGITAL PROJECT!!

Hello friends!! Today we will create a storyboard as a blueprint of a posterior Digital Story . In this project, I am not going to work alone, I will be joined by my classmates: Carolina , Clara and Nerea . We decided to make our project about the importance of women in society throughout history and the unfair situation that most of them had to live in because of the social mindset. We think this is an important topic to talk about with our students since they have to realise the importance of values such as respect and equality. To do that, firstly we took some time thinking about the topic and looking for information about our women. Once collected the information we started writing a script in Google Docs so that we organized the information and we wrote the text that we will add to the storyboard. After that, we began with the Storyboardthat creating different scenes in which in each, a woman appears telling her story. Our protagonists are Dorothy Crow...

Hello friends!!! In today's post, we are going to create a presentation through Genially which is an amazing tool that gives us the possibility to design interactive presentations capable to call the students' attention and engage them and focus on the task working at. I must confess that it was my very first time using this program and it really surprises me for good. In the beginning, was a little bit messy to use it because it have a lot of options and tools, but also it was very intuitive and with just a few minutes you can discover a lot of resources to be used and make much better your slides. With this program, you can make your classes have great quality and be more meaningful!

I highly recommend this tool because is very useful and it allow you to give a little ...
