Encendiendo Bombillas

     Different from the other groups, Encendiendo Bombillas started their presentation by showing their micro task instead of a team plan. Addition to explaining their responsibilities, commitments and objectives, they mention what they’ve learned from this project. And this shows their awareness of their gain, which is really important from my point of view.
     As a subject they chose “Plants” which is a subject of Science for the students of 3rd and 4th grade of primary education. They prefered using “Jigsaw” technique and they divided the it into 5 sessions.
     In the first session, they planned to take the students to the computer class and make them do an exercise that can help them familiarize the plants there. Using computer class is a good idea, because technology offers us lots of opportunities.
     In the second session, students formed the basic groups and go to the botanical garden. I like this idea, because by this way students have the opportunity to learn experimentally. And i think if the learning process is related to real life, it can be permanent. At the end of this activity students were given some rewards. And they such planned the process that all the students can have a reward and feel like an achiever. And they had known the rewards before the activity started, that’s why, it was a very good idea to motivate all the children to learn.
     Another idea of activity that I think really good was in session 4. In the activity, each group needed to prepare a notebook including what they’d just learnt. This activity could allow them to put together and  summarize all the things that they’d learnt.
     Lastly, after self-evalutaion part they had the idea of giving all the students prizes on categories such as prettiest notebook, most cooperative group and etc. I think, their categories were really good-planned.
     In conclusion, I liked their all ideas. I think Encendiendo Bombillas did a very good job.
