Skills and conditions needed for teacher collaboration

I'm agree with the teacher training. In my school we rarely collaborating  and sharing experience, there is scepticism by my collegues. 23p2

I had had an experience in Etwinnings. I collaborated in Erathostenes experiment, it was a great experience.

I don't like to use social networks, except Whatsapp,

I think that teachers don't  have the required skills to take advantage of digital technologies.

I'm perfectly agree with Doctor Valente. I often use peer and self assessment and i note that when students self and peer assess, they are actively involved in the learning process and their independence and motivation is improved

I prefer heterogeneous groups because   students with varied learning levels working together and helping each other can find the best way to  reach  goals.

Through ICT, teachers are able to create interactive classes and make the lessons more enjoyable, which could improve student attendance and concentration.

I usually use Padlets and Google Forms . I didn’t know the others

# data[].attributes.body
The two projects, as well as usually are all the Etwinning projects, are really interesting.

I am totally agree with the seven benefits of collaborative learning assessment and in my experience of collaborative learning I have observed  the same challenges and the same problems,  like Antonio.

I think that the methodological process which is used in collaborative learning need to  be applied to all disciplines and classes.

I have appreciated the reflections and the questions about metacognitive analysis, which contributes to the self-assessment of students' thinking on the quality configuration of the team work.

Metacognition means "thinking about thinking" is the ability of self-reflection of the ongoing cognitive processes.

I think that peer assessment is important for learning activities.

A valid way to constructively check the individual participation and performance within collaborative work is to use a  rubric that clearly articulates the different behavioral components of participation and that describes these behaviors at different performance levels

The importance of  collective formative assessment is to create a sense of a learning community because each student can see how their individual pieces add up to something greater when they collaborate.

Sometimes I ask them to realize individual outcomes. I think that the two aspects are important, but it is necessary to be clear,  timely  and involve the students  with self assessment.

I am absolutely agree about the importance of a shared language and collaborating with collegues: a procedural approach is important because of made enable students to acquire general skills and strategies that they can apply widely to understand situations and solve problems.
The technologies are important to this approach.

The ideas are good point of start, infact  in a collaborative activity it is important that the students supporting one another, and growing as a learning community. make decisions based on creative thinking, communication, and collaboration

What is collaborative learning?

https://youtu.be/gmix1Puia48

Collaborative learning refers to methodologies and environments in which learners engage in a common task in which each individual depends on and is accountable to each other.  I'am agree with the keys fixed in the video above:
Leadership competences

Self-evaluation skill

Presentations skills

Skills of persuasion and negotiation

Team working skill

# data[].attributes.body
The learning objectives for this module are:

1.    Understand the full meaning of collaborative learning, and that it requires more than teachers simply putting students in groups

2.    Appreciate the key benefits collaborative learning can bring to students and the specific skills it helps develop

3.    Appreciate how collaborative learning can be facilitated by a flexible, interactive classroom, and also through project-based learning

4.    Create a personal Learning Diary to log learning activities, reflections and resources from the course.

5.    Reflect in your Learning Diary on two learning activities and whether they require a low or high level of collaboration from students
