UDCDMM: THE BEGINNING.

"UN DÍA EN EL COLE DE MI MAESTRO"

FIRST WEEK.

JOURNALIST:

The beginning of this week was very difficult for us, due to the fact that we were a little bit lost. However, it was our fault, because the explanation was clearly expressed. We had ahead an exiting new project, "Un día en el cole de mi maestro". We were extremely happy to work with children. Nevertheless, the coordination between the group was pretty bad. As Linda didn´t came to class, we didn't attend everydays. Therefore, we had a lot of accumulated work to do. The first day we met we started to work in the Augmented Reality activity and that first day was really productive. After that, we started to think about what our storytelling would be, but without concreting anything. We recognize that we should have worked much more during this week, but we also think that it is very important to know our errors and to be able to improve for the rest of the course.

This week we would like to recommend to sites: 

-https://www.makeblock.com/official-blog/211321.html

We had chosen this site because we consider that ir explains really well how the most difficult task works, the Codey Rocky Robot.

This blog has an amazing organization and it is very visual, with a good explanation about their organization in "Un día en el cole de mi maestro".

CURATOR:

During this week we have used different apps to develop the task.

• To develop the activity of Augmented Reality we have used the application "Chrome Ville Science". We have downloaded the templates of the Water Circle provided by the app. Then, we have printed them. After having the templates printed, we have used the app to see the Augmented Reality effect.

• After explaining children how the app works, the day of the development of the task we will explain them the importance of Water Circleahd how it works. To do the presentation, we have used some information provided by: Ariadna G.. (2018). Qué es el ciclo del agua para niños. diciembre 28, de Ecologíaverde Sitio web: https://www.ecologiaverde.com

• According to the development of the activity Storytelling and the creation of a stop motion; we have used the application "Stop motion". This application will be used with the kids the day of the presentation of Storytelling.

TRANSLATOR: 

The important words we consider essential are:

Augmented reality: Another version of reality using technology to interpret an image to digital information.

Programming: A way of configuring the computer to instruct it to perform and specific task.

Pollution: water pollution is the contamination of water bodies, usually as a result of human activities. Water bodies include for example lakes, rivers, oceans, aquifers and groundwater.

Stop motion: A filming technique which consist of taking a lot of photographs to put them successively to produce appearance of movement.

Storytelling: Transmission of events with images and words, and usually making improvisation.

Water cycle: describes how water evaporates from the surface of the earth, rises into the atmosphere, cools and condenses into rain or snow in clouds, and falls again to the surface as precipitation.

ANALYST:

a.       What was the best part of the activity?

The best part of the activity was when we had codey rocky for the first time.

b.      What was the worse?

The worst part was when none of us realized that we are doing the augmented reality wrong.

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

The best moment of the day was when, after organizing it wrong and making many mistakes, we understand how to doing it well.

.

d.      What was the worse?

When we realized we had a lot of things wrong and we had an argument because we did not know how to do it.

e.       What have you learnt?

This week, we learnt a lot about augmented reality. However, from my point of vew, the most important thing we have learnt is about team work.

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

We need to conserve the motivation that we had at the end of this week.

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

       We need to improve our communication as a group.

REFLEXION:

During all the week we have been working all together sharing our ideas to improve the task. At first we were a little bit lost, however, when we start working and discovering new techniques we began to do it better. In addition despite we were all in the three activities we decided to form groups to be confortable and quicker. Un Día en el Cole de mi Maestro is great initiative for education students, because it prepare us for the future being in contact with children.
