Task 5.(Summary Video). Grades of my classmates

Here you have the grades of our classmates. We have to admitd that we enjoyed a lot watching all the videos, so congratulations for all the groups!!
The order of the groups is according to the point that we gave to them:

1-THE POWERPUFF TEACHER (3 points)
Their video could have been better because,although they put all the content that we have learnt the video was very fast and we were not able to catch the ideas to understand it(something very important when we are explaining what we have learnt).Because of these reasons, the video lowered their quality .However we know they are a good group and they worked very hard in this project, so I am sure that the next time they will do better! But instead of this, well done Powerpuff teachers!!

2-UMPALUMPAS (4 points)
Their video was good but they did not put credits and the music did not have Creative Commons Licences, instead of these mistakes that they can correct, well done too!!

3-PLATYPUS (5 points)
Their video was a bit simple and we know that they could do better, and the star was a bit nervous but instead of this she did it really good, so congratulations to this group!!

4-POWER TEACHERS (6 points)
Their video was good, because  they had organized the contents with the structure of T-PACK and explained it in a good way. We recommend this group for the next time that increases the volume of the voices at the beginning and try to avoid put a lot of letter because there isn't enough time to read them.

5-MEERKATS (7 points)
We enjoyed a lot watching their video; it was fantastic because they have represented very well the contents and the star gave us a lot of sweets and he presented their video in a very original way!!

6-7UP (8 points)
I enjoyed a lot watching their video because it was very dynamic and the music helped us to concentrate more and to put all of our attention watching it; and the star was really good too!! Good work.

7-KEEP CALM & KEEP ORGANIZED (10 points)
Their video was so good because they do a good division: resources and contents, so we could see the information in a clear way. They put photos of all the groups and this was a good detail. Good work!!

8-ITSCHOOL (12 points)
Their video was really good!! It was so interesting and it was very well made and the star did so well. Congratulations for your 12 points!!



Well done everybody!!!:) You did a good job so congratulations all the groups

Task 5.(Summary Video). Analyst

Hi people!! I am Gracia, the analyst of Busy Bees this week.

This week in School Organization and Educational Resources we have worked in the task 5, Summary Video, in which we had to make a video with moovly or powtoon including all the contents that we have studied during the course.

From my point of view, this task has been very interesting and funny, because it has been a bit different of the rest of the tasks and we have leant how to do animated videos using some useful tools online, being this the best part of the activity.

One of the worst things of this task was when we realized that the computer in which we had the video were broken, we had to repeat all the video again and recorded the audios because they had been deleted.

On Monday, when we had to put the video in class, we had some problems because the video did not reproduced well, but finally, the best moment of the week was when we could show our video correctly on time, we were very nervous because we thought that we were going to failed the task if we were not able to put the video. It was a mixture of feelings, because of on one hand we felt worried but finally we fell relaxed and relieved.

With this task, we have learnt a lot of things because most of us did not know how to do an animated video so we have learnt with the help of the members of the group that really know how to use this kind of program, so it has been very useful. Also we have remembered the entire contents of the course such as what is T-PACK, the dark side of text books, that media are not neutral…

Busy Bees, as a group has to improve in some things because many times we do not listen our partners or we want to control all the things and we do not think that this is the role of the facilitator; but instead of this, I think that one of the best things that we have is that we are friends, we help everybody and we finish the task on time, so we want to conserve this aspects.

This activity is related with the same subjects of the rest of the tasks, and all together shows us the best way to be a good teacher and to teach to the students in a correct way, and unfortunately a lot of teachers do not know them, for example the necessity of looking for the best way to teach (T-PACK), know which contents are better, or know that textbooks are not good as we usually think…

To sum up, even if not all the video is related, the majority of the contents have a relation with some aspects of the society in which we live, such us the dark side of the textbooks, because of there are a lot of political and economical interests, that media are not neutral, because they show us a distorted reality, as we can see in our video, when the teacher explains it…

I hope you enjoy reading this post!!! See you soon :) 


Task 5. (Summary Video). Journalist

Hello guys!! 

I'm Yolanda, the journalist of this week. First of all I have to recognise that it was a role more interesting that I expected. Furthermore, I love taking photos, so it was a good experience.

This week, we have had to do a moovly. Our moovly is called: "A day with Tommy", and it is a little story about the content that we have learnt until now. For this task, we met in Luis Vives on Monday (from the end of the classes until 5 pm) to do the narration and dialogue of our story. Also, we met in Luis Vives on Wednesday (from the end of the classes until 7 pm), to do the story with moovly, and to record the audios. Finally, on Thursday we met in a classroom of the "Aulario Giner de los Rios", to make the final changes.

I think the task of this week is very dynamic and interesting. Furthermore, I want to give my congratulations to all the other groups.

Here you are some of the best moments of this week!!

Task 5. (Summary Video). Star

 Hello everyone!! My name is Miriam and this week I have been the Star of the group BusyBees!!

First of all I want to apologize for everything that has happened in the class, in the exposition, and for the problem with the video that we have had, we have worked very hard to do it, because of that, we were so concerned that nothing was wrong and to solve the problems.

My experience as a star has been good, from the first moment that we knew the activity, we started to prepare everything and I felt very sure with my exposition. This week we have had to make a video that included all the contents that we have learned in this subject of School Organization and Educational Resources. My group decided that, between the two programs which Linda proposed us to make the video, Powtoon and Moovly, the most interesting and creative one was Moovly, so we started carrying out the task from the first moment.

From our point of view, this activity has allowed us to learn about new tools that in the future we will use, as well as helped another time to organize us as a Group and take advantage of what we do. We have worked pretty hard, and we believe that the result can be seen in the video, so we are very happy.

The day of the exhibition, Linda proposed to present our work in a "competition" of the type of Eurovision, in which we had to present our videos to the other teams. The Group which will have the best one, will win a prize (a lunch in the cafeteria). The judges would be: first ourselves voting for the other groups (30%), then the teacher Linda (40%) and finally, other people who do not belong to our class and who would vote in the same way as us (30%). In the voting, until the end of the competition, our video was very close to with our partners ItSchool, but finally, they won getting the most votes, congratulations guys, you did a good work!.


Regarding to my experience as a star, I have to say that at the beginning, as is usual, I was very nervous and afraid to do it bad or not as good as I can. This first part was well, the problems came when I had to put the video on the computer to show our work to the other groups, there was a problem when I passed the video from Moovly to the pendrive, so the video was passed with errors and it did not open. I got very nervous and I did not know what to do, the computer did not read it, so we opted to try to solve it while the other groups continued with their exposure and showing their videos.
The first solution we tried to carry out was to put the video on another laptop, but as I have said before, the problem was in the pendrive, so it was impossible to open in any one (we tried to open it on three different laptops, have to give the thanks to our colleagues who left us them). I was more and more nervous, I thought about going in my car running to my house and bring my laptop where I had the original video (I never thought that we could have had this problem). Finally I remembered that the last night I sent the video to Dropbox, so everyone got excited.

When the last group ended their exposition and showed their videos, I had to swallow my nerves, to apologize for all the problems that we have had, and to put the video again. This time finally everything went well! After so many efforts!!.

In conclusion, I can say that despite all the problems we had, our group felt very satisfied with the reactions of the people when watching our video. They laughed, because we did it in a very original way. To finish the video, we recorded us singing a song that everyone liked very much, and it was very funny. So we finally feel comfortable with the work done and the exhibition, which, although it did not go as well as we had hoped, we took it forward.

I hope you like my post!! Bye Beeessss!!

Task 5. (Summary Video). Translator

Hello, I´m Bernabe and I have been the translator this week. I like this role because you must to be very careful in your work and I like to do it. To do a summary about the most relevant words in this work I have used I have used the following words:

-Moovly: it is a useful tool for creating presentations, interactive infographics, animated banner and product promotion videos and other similar multimedia digital content. We can do it using a combination of uploaded images, sounds and videos. Users will be able to assemble new content modules and publish them on a variety of platforms such as: social media platforms, mobiles, also, we can download their content for other uses to.

-Powtons: it is a program which sells cloud-based software for creating animated presentations and animated videos; this is a Web-based animation software that we can use to create animated presentations by manipulating pre-created objects, imported images, provided music and user created voice-overs.

-Contents: related to education, contents are the information that teachers have to teach in the classroom to the students. Depending on the subject (science, language…) the contents are different.

-Educational resources: they are the resources using at school to facilitate the work of teaching. Time and personal are two of the most important resources, but there are a lot of types of resources such as new technologies and school supplies that develop many effects on student learning.

-Competence: It is a learning that we can apply to solve problems that happen in and out to school. There are many different kinds of competencies but the main competences that are developing in school age are: personal, social and ethical competencies; personal competencies are referring to our own knowledge, social competencies are developing links witch other people, and ethical competences are referring to the own perspective about culture, religion and more. Nowadays competences are one of the most important points in the curriculum of most of countries.

I hope my selection of words had been right and useful for you. 
And finally, I have to admit that this role it has been very useful to me because I have learnt about how to research the meaning about many words faster than I did before.

See you in next post!!!

Task 5.(Summary Video). Curator-Farmer

Hello Busy Bees! I am Ainhoa and this week I have been the Curator-Farmer. 

Well, I have to say that this role is more difficult that it looks because you have to know a lot of about mindmaps and tools to do well your job. At first looks easy va is very complex to understand all the concept and over all for me because I am very bad at using tecnologies.
On the other hand I have to say that I have learnt a lot and I like this!! 

Zzzzzze you soon !!

Task 5 (Summary video). Information

Hi, I´m Ana!

We have done a video about what have we learnt in the subject of Educational Resources, to accomplish it in a funny way, we decide to do the school day of a boy called Tommy. I hope you like it:





This video has been made with a special tool named moovly (https://www.moovly.com/).
We had a problem with the computer of one Busy Bee, so the video was erased from the page of moovly, so I can´t put a link of moovly to see it.
Sorry for the problems.


XO XO,  Busy Bees
