WEEK SEVEN- Bringing it all together

The construction of our Professional Development Video is coming together quite nicely.

 Firstly, we discussed our modes of communication between the three of us. We created a Google Document in order to communicate with one another effectively. This by far was the most beneficially choice of communication I have ever used within a group assignment and I will without a doubt employ it in the future.

The construction of our video was divided as follows:

Myself

·      Introduction- Students in the 21^st century: How does technology assist with learning?

·      The Traditional Classroom vs. a Collaborative Classroom

·      TPACK: The utilization of the model and how best use it to effectively enhance       classroom teaching and learning.

·      Collaborative Learning Pedagogy: How can we enhance Webspiration Classroom and an English content area through a Collaborative Learning Pedagogy?

·      Owner of Macbook Pro and editor of video.

Our group is thoroughly enjoying this Learning Adventure. We have been able to collaborate effectively together, both at university, online through Google Documents and meetings outside university. Our video has been shaped using each others thoughts and ideas, creating what we think will be a highly enjoyable Webspiration Classroom Experience.
