Hi there pickles, Ben and Alex here with the Translator role for this week, bringing you our five key concepts for this past week:
Infographic:
Our main objective for this task was to create an infographic, which are great ways to represent information and knowledge exhibiting information as clearly and concisely as possible. As we all know, humans are incredibly visual creatures, so the collection of charts, images and minimal text make topics much easier to understand. The following is a moving example on how to recreate Michael Jackson´s moonwalk:
Magazine:
For our task we decided to stylize the information as a magazine article, magazines are publications printed on glossy pages with themes for people of all walks of life, all genders and interests. They include interesting articles, games and puzzles for young people to learn about all kinds of topics. Some great examples for young students are "Muy Interesante Junior", "National Geographic Kids" or "Okapi".
Quiz:
We are all familiar with the concept of the "What...are you?" quiz we can find online on pages like Buzzfeed, or the quizzes in magazines that when answering questions you are ranked on your knowledge of The Jonas Brothers and the sort. Quizzes can be used not only to gain information about the taker but also to impart knowledge to them through the content of the questions being asked.
Holistic:
The term holistic refers to the belief that the elements that make up a whole are intimately interconnected and need to be viewed and understood as a dependant system. In this case the elements are the competences needed for teaching in the digital world.
Digital World:
This term is best defined as the need for digital literacy especially when used for pedagogical reasons. The digital world includes digital tools to communicate through the Internet, smart devices and many other types of technologies.
And thats all for now, have yourselves a great week from us here at The Pickles!!
