Reflect on my super own learning.

Hi everyone!!! 

This will be my last post... for now!!! I have finished my ICT subject, for which I created this blog. My idea is to continue writing entries and doing some research in different ICT tools (websites and apps). So this is not a goodbye, just a "see you soon"!

For this last post we were asked to do a summary about the course: what activities we did; which tools we used; our outcomes; what we have learnt; what we will use in the future with our students... We should present this summary/reflection using one of the tools we have been introduced during the subject, or a new one! As my teacher told me: "The sky is the limit for me now". We had, at least, to include screenshoots of our outcomes and a video or audio explaining everything we think must be mentioned. 

I wanted to "innovate" so I have done some research, and I found an awesome tool to create picture books. It is Storyjumper; it is an online tool, free and easy-to-use. First of all...yes! Your have to sign up (it is enough with your google account).Then, you can start creating. For so, you have a lot of features: scenes, text frames, props (with signals, animals, characters, etc); there you can design your own characters, so it is fantastic!... and also you can upload your own pictures/images. Sounds good... doesn't it?

OH! And you can publish your book as an ebook or you can order to print it (of course, these options you have to pay for).


When you finish your picture book, you have an option to add voice, so you can record your storytelling. Isn't it awesome?!?! But...WARN! In order to add voice, you need Chrome Browser. I have too many things and apps in my desktop, so I prefer not to download more software. For so, I have recorded the story adding more reflections and ideas; as well as a background music and sound effects using Spreaker Studio (the tool with which I recorded my podcast). 

I leave you here both, the podcast and the picture book, hoping you enjoy them!

It has been a pleasure this journey through the ICT tools and, moreover, sharing it with all of you! WE DID IT!!!

The world is my audience

Here I am again!!!  This time I had an assignment about recording and sharing a video through Flipgrid , specifically a response to the grid “The world is my audience” (#twima 8 – We all have a story!)   I usually do not do this kind of things… I do not have Instagram, for example, because I do not think anyone needs to know what I am doing every single moment… I do not like telling the world things about me, about what I like the most or where I am in every moment. I prefer keeping these things for me, my family, my friends… I believe people do not care and, if so, it would be worse… But this time is different; the aim of this video is not sharing everything, just a little piece of me, and I do not mind doing that. I thought what to tell… my hobbies, my experience abroad, my first time as a teacher, my worst moments, the best ones… What???? And finally, I found my answer! I am going to share my first walk after the lockdown, in a city which is not where I was born...

Mind map design

Hello again!!!! This time I have been trying different tools for creating mind maps. I love mind maps because they are very useful for everything: studying, reviewing, preparing a conference, whatever! So, here I bring you different tools you can use for designing them: Mindmeister   Coggle Mind42 SpiderScribe Bubbl Creately     I have created a mind map with the main contents of plants' lesson. Using it, I could explain students all the lesson, and they can follow the class, as well as studying it and reviewing it at the end of the lesson.  In order to create my mind map I have used two of tools above: coggle and SpiderScribe.  In both, the first thing you have to do (as usual) is to sign up. They have free plans, although they are not as complete as the paying-plans and, in SpiderScribe, you have some advertisements. Firstly, I am going to focus on coggle. This one is very interesting because you can invite colleagues for designin...
