19. Technology (in real time):
1. Pre-created workspace
2. Sharing options from SMART amp within your class.
3. Sharing options from Google Drive to invite other gafe-
users.
How to?
20. Preparation (pedagogy):
A. Let students decide which way the learning is going. Wild ideas, just go as they please.
Pro: learning how to work within amp and explore possibilities.
Con: does it aim your goals?
B. Prepare good questions and share with students what the goals are that you as a
teacher are aiming for with the class.
21. Topic of today: Cultural heritage
How? Let students take pictures of things and describe what
cultural things they are proud of and willing to share with
others - ie. the world.
Why?
22. Goals:
1. From a student perspective you are able to
determine what they think is their cultural heritage
2. Learning from others about cultural heritage from
their point of view.
3. Show and share to others will definitely bring the
quality of the shared work to a higher level (due to
the fact that others instead of just the teacher are
watching as well)
23. When working together make sure that you as a teacher remark the students with the basic
principle that collaborating with each other is based on equality. Especially when collaborating
with students from other countries make sure that students have these two things in mind:
reciprocity
and
equivalence
