This week I am the analyst so I have to evaluate the teamwork and answer the following questions related with the practice: “Changes in The Spanish Educational System Overview: The game.”.
·
What was the best part of the activity?
The best part of the activity was the moment of the game, no doubt. Our star had prepared very well the content; therefore, we wanted to see them in action. When it was our turn, my team and I were very nervous and excited. In that way, we always celebrated our victory! We trusted them, in fact, the stars did not fail any question, but the luck did not accompany us. Therefore, from my point of view, the game was really fun and entertaining. In addition, I think that everyone had a good time!
· What was the worse?
The worst is still the organization of the group because we are many members in the team and we have to divide and coordinate us in the best possible way and this is sometimes a bit tricky. This time, the problem was to choose the stars. Obviously, no one wanted this role.. So, we spend too much time making the choice, and in that way, it was a difficult task. So, after speaking it in common, we come to a conclusion: we will follow the order. In addition, we believe that this was the most logical and sensible proposal. Therefore, we do it!
· What was the best moment of the week (in the work of the group)?
The funniest part of the week has been the representation of the stars, as I said. This week, they had to respond to some questions which they have prepared during the week. All team members asked ourselves how the game will be, and thus, when our star had to respond to the questions, we were very nervous and anxious to see her/him. This week has been somewhat unexpected, which we think is innovative and dynamic.
As a group, we support our stars, especially when their turn came.
· What was the worse?
The worst part were the nerves. We were really nervous because it was a very important game. When the turn came for our two stars, my group and I expected with illusion and desire a correct answer! This moment is very frustrating, especially for our representatives (stars). The stars knew that they had a great responsibility, so they were even more unsettled.
· What do you need to conserve -as a group- for the next weeks?
All members of the group worked hard their parts to carry out a good job. We did it with great interest and looking forward the game to be done correctly and successfully. If in a group there are not hard work, desire, illusion and strength, the group will not be very good and thereby the practices will not have a great result. Each and every member of the group work in order to the practice of every week will be prepared in the best possible way. This is an aspect that should be transmitted to next weeks.
By this I mean, we have worked hard to reach this stage: "The game". In addition, our stars have taken much interest and have studied a lot to pass the game successfully.
· What do you need to improve –as a group- for the next weeks?
We should improve the decision-making. I say this because my group and I have taken a long time to choose the star .. This task was different, so it scared us a little. It is also true that we are many members in the group. Thus, it is more difficult to make decisions. There are many different opinions .. But I think we've taken the most logical choice: We have followed the order of the roles.
· How THIS content is related to other contents in the course and in your degree?
This practice has been very important for us. For example, in other subjects we are constantly trying these laws: in "Diversity" or in "Action Tutorial". So, that contest is related to other matters in the course. Therefore, knowing the law helps us.
Also, as future teachers, we must know this aspect . Because when we teach our students in a future, we have to know the law to teach correctly, to make good decisions, for a better understanding of the teaching process, to know every aspect of a school..
