My classroom does not have an easy material to dispose and move but we usually drag the tables and form the groups ... they are many students ( 26 students, in 3rd year, primary school) heavy material and little space ... sometimes it is not easy.

3- What is collaborative learning?- My Reflexion

# data[].attributes.body
Collaborative learning consists of working with each other and learning together, developing mutually. In small children (7.8 years old) it is difficult for them to negotiate and work as a team depending on the work of others. However, I think it is essential that this type of work be started early. Since the last academic year that I try to implement and little by little I denote that the students are able to respect themselves, share ideas, present them to the group and some can already reflect on the quality of the work developed.

With studentes with 7,8 years old is very important define  the rules and explain very well what is intended the work is meaningful to them.
During the tasks sometimes there is noise but is a healthy noise of the work, in witch they exchange ideas and discuss opinions ( albeit very basic) . Learn to respects the opinio of others. They learn how to listen. With this class usually develop activities related to the maths, potuguês and enviorenement study.
Evaluation is not always easy... I m often taking gried notes that i had prepared , also it is privileged self evaluation and hetero group evaluation.
I think the tools and the evaluation mentioned in the video are very useful for learning.

5- A History & Geography teacher’s experience of collaborative learning - My reflexion

# data[].attributes.body
I have had very positive experiences in working collaboratively with colleagues. Not everyone is receptive to these practices as there is always a fear of leaving the comfort zone.
With this group I have tried to develop small group projects since last year (1st year of schooling) ... it is still difficult to know how to wait, how to respect and accept the opinion of the other and to evaluate the work of the group. However, I believe that these difficulties little by little they will be ultrpassadas.
In forming the groups I try to create heterogeneous groups and during the work I try to verify that all collaborate. At the end of the activity we usually reflect on the work developed in the group and on the difficulties felt and aspects that they liked.

Activity with low level of collaboration - Resolution of mathematical challenges in pairs.
Activity with highest level of collaboration - Students in groups of 4 elements define a word that they consider fundamental for life in the school / in the class. In the group they chose the word, presented to the group and justified the reason.
It was a very interesting activity that resulted in a joint panel.

I agree, it is important to use the same language and define very well what is meant by collaboration and group work.
Often the students are in a group but are not doing collaborative work, they work in the same space but in isolation ... each one by itself. Erradamente still assumes group work as being synonymous with collaborative work. However to be collaborative work there must be relationships of interdependence, negotiation, etc. It is also very important for the teacher to define very well what he intends with the activity and to be able to transmit this information to the students.
Technology is a great ally in collaborative work.

These four issues mentioned in the video are very important to plan the activities to be developed.
When I plan collaborative work these four questions are not always present given the age of my students (primary school), but I always look for interdependence and a joint reflection at the end with a collective presentation.
With what I am learning here in the future I can improve this situation by providing my students with true collaborative work.

I found the rubric explained by Prof Deirdre Butler quite interesting. This rubric is very useful for understanding the effective level of collaboration of our students. I will take into consideration what was mentioned in my next activities. It is the first step to stop using old methodologies and to create in launos a taste for learning and for building knowledge.

Activity with low level of collaboration - Resolution of mathematical challenges in pairs. Level 2 (Students DO work together  but  they do not  have shared responsibility.)

Activity with highest level of collaboration - Students in groups of 4 elements define a word that they consider fundamental for life in the school / in the class. In the group they chose the word, presented to the group and justified the reason.
It was a very interesting activity that resulted in a joint panel. Level 5 (Students do have shared responsibility and  they do make substantive decisions together about the content, process, or product of their work and  their work is interdependent.)

In some groups, it was difficult to manage negotiation, share responsibilities and make final product decisions.

11- My opinion about «Assessment for improving collaborative learning »

# data[].attributes.body
I think that collaborative work and its evaluation when started from an early age (1st year of schooling) effectively promote mutual aid rather than competition.
After reading the provided documents I conclude that my assessment has been too extensive and that I have much to learn in this area in order to make it more effective.
With regard to summative assessment, unfortunately, the final sheets are valued at the expense of products designed throughout the year. Although it is said that the evaluation is continuous, it continues to prioritize the standard form. These assessment instruments are even made in a year group and are the same for all schools in the group. I think in this area a lot of work is still to be done.

I really enjoyed the presentation made by Chrysa because it helps us understand the importance of children learning from others. Getting them to reflect on the work done encourages them to work together in a healthy way without competition. I also found it very important to focus on the importance of monitoring by the teacher as well as how she does it.

I liked the presentation made by Antonio as well as the work he developed, which I consider enriching.
I agree with him about the 7 benefits of this type of work. I consider it important to reorganize classroom space as well as to consider not only the evaluation of the prodiuto but also the whole process.
In relation to digital tools, I think of them as an asset. I have had the opportunity to use the plikers and the time up in the last school year ... but much more I have to learn.

The mode of formation of groups depends on the type of activity. Sometimes I let them choose freely, sometimes I do randomly, but most of them do the groups because I try to make heterogeneous groups so that there can be more mutual support.
Given my little experience in this area of digital tools and how I have children at 7 years I have never used this type of instruments. However for what Ana showed me they seem very useful and rich. This year as I am already in 3rd year and the students already have more autonomy of reading I will try to use some of these presented forms.

I totally agree with Professor Luis Valente it is important to involve students because we give them autonomy and responsibility.
Self-evaluation and peer evaluation fosters responsibility in the group, giving them autonomy and a critical spirit. Simultaneously parasitism and dependence on each other are reduced ... all work in common with each other.
In my classes I usually use this type and evaluation in a very elementary way. I am aware that I need to create tools in conjunction with students in order to improve in this area.

I agree with Professor Buttler collaboration is key to evolving professionally and thus we succeed in enhancing the success of our students.
However collaboration takes time, involvement, we do not always get pairs that want to give part of their time to this type of work.
I have done some collaborative work with colleagues from other schools using the internet at my school is already practicing but still very little.

I use google drive, cloud, I collaborate with colleagues from my country on yahoogroups in a specific group of my level of education where we share materials, and we exchange ideas.
These MOOCs are important enough to enrich our practices and exchange experiences with colleagues from around the world. Nowadays technologies, when well used, are excellent means of peer learning.

It is not always easy to find time within the school itself for collaboration. The schedules are very different. It becomes easier to do it using the internet and after our work hours at home. I have more online collaboration experiences than within the school itself. At school they are in punctual and short periods, unfortunately
