MªLuz Rodríguez like an Analyst

Hi! My name is MªLuz, and I am the Analyst this week. The work of this week is about TPACK, and I will answer the next question. Then, I am going to grade each member of the group "Education Rush Hour"

a. What was the best part of the activity?

On the one hand, the best part of this activity has been what we have learnt about TPACK . It was the first time that we were working about school organization but we have been able to solve our problems. On the other hand, we have seen how each team has explained their point of view about this. The explanations are very clear and original, indeed, their "stars" were able to describe in detail TPACK concept.

b. What was the worse?

Meanly, the worse part has been the beginning because we do not know what we had to do. There was a lot of misunderstanding and the things to do were not very clear. However, we have worked very hard and we have got solve our problems.

c. What was the best moment of the week (in the work of the group)? 

The best moment of the week has been when the group was working about the mind map, because our ideas were explained and we chose the best one. Moreover, work environment was very important because each member has worked in its part. Therefore we have seen our results on Monday.

d. What was the worse? 

The worse part is difficult to say, but the beginning of the week was very stifling. The first day, when the work was explained, we had a lot of doubts. There was a sense of stress and we thought that the work was very difficult and we were not able to do it.

e. What have you learnt? 

In this work, we have learnt about TPACK. Now, we can distinguish between technological, pedagogical and content knowledge. We have learnt how the subjects are put in order according to its way of teach. Besides, we have learnt to coordinate us for do some works.

f. What do you need to conserve -as a group- for the next weeks? 

This week we have worked a lot because we did not understand the activity very well. I think that the team have to conserve the excitement of working for get our target. Moreover, we have helped each other, so that is why the work has been easier.

g. What do you need to improve –as a group- for the next weeks?

Although the team has worked very well this week, we can improve in many aspects. For example, we could be more calm, because this week we have been nervous. Besides, we have to take adventage of the classroom time and do each work in class.

h. How THIS content is related to other contents in the course and in your degree?

TPACK is related to many contents like the subjects.I can talk about the first four-month period only, so for example, we have related TPACK with Planification because this subject uses technological, pedagogical and content knowledge. Institutions and theories of education uses content knowledge on the contrary. Finally, Psychology of Development and Sociology of Education are related to pedagogical and content knowledge, because we have used draft and slides in both subjects.

i. There is any evident social connection of this content (news, politics, etc.)? 

We have not found any evident social connection of this content. Indeed, we have used only the information committed by the teacher, moreover, Internet to look for pictures.


ABOUT MY ROLE:
This week my role is the Analyst, who grades the each member's work and evaluate how we have worked this week. When I was chosen for the role of Analyst, I thought that it would be difficult, because score your own mates is not easy. Moreover, I had to pay attention to everything because everything was necessary for the evaluation. My team has worked very hard and they have obtained the provided knowledges about TPACK, so it was difficult say something wrong about this week. However, my role has been very constructive, this is all to say that I have learnt about TPACK and my partners. The Analyst must observe everything and takes note about details for supplement its work.
