My Learning Diary by Alexandra Figueiredo https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z Made with love but not having the time that I need... en-us 2016-11-23 10:34:53 UTC 2025-09-24 12:58:56 UTC hello@padlet.com Collaborative Learning is: xanafig https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139552250 A process through which learners at various performance levels work together in small groups toward a common goal.

It is a learner-centred approach. Collaborative learning is a relationship among learners that fosters positive interdependence, individual accountability, and interpersonal skills.

For collaborative learning to be effective, teaching must be viewed as a process of developing students’ ability to learn.

The teacher’s role is not to transmit information, but to serve as a facilitator for learning. This involves creating and managing meaningful learning experiences and stimulating learners’ thinking through real-world problems. The task must be clearly defined and be guided by specific objectives.

We are working collaboratively with a 7th grade class and it is a very interesting challenge, the most important thing is that the students are enjoying it and are learning !!]]> 2016-11-23 10:48:59 UTC https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139553646 Observation greeds : xanafig https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139555264 We are having problems with the construction of our observation greeds, but we are working on this because we think they are extremely important.]]> 2016-11-23 10:58:53 UTC https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139555264 Collaborative learning scenarios: xanafig https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139555792 Dream- brain storming; dream about the solution or the outcome
Explore- Collect information
Map- design
Make- Make the product or  practice an activity (Ex: interviewing experts; doing experiments and film it)
Ask- ask your peers or an expert on the subject
Re-make- revisiting they work an re-make it or improve it based on what they learned
Show- Show they work in different ways
In our case we (they)are maping.... We are really working on a collaborative project - constructing a model of the solar system

Assessment should encourage students to learn collaboratively and not encourage competition. It should also contribute to a collective conscience promoting the belief that we learn better in groups because we can overcome our difficulties more easily when we help one another.” ]]> 2016-11-23 11:13:56 UTC https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139558158 Collaborative learning and student peer reviews xanafig https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139559359 Our students are not used to this kind of work, but I think it is extremely important. The fact that the student's work is "evaluated" by his or her peers may help them not feel constrained, because it is the classmate and not the teacher who is doing it.]]> 2016-11-23 11:19:12 UTC https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139559359 Collaborative learning - What to assess and how? xanafig https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139560085 For me, this is an issue I still can not quite understand, but I´m working on it....
Well, I have not yet reached the last step, I'm halfway ...]]> 2016-11-23 11:22:59 UTC https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139560085 How can teacher collaboration facilitate collaborative learning? xanafig https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139561388 At this moment I'm starting to appreciate how can teacher collaboration facilitate a collaborative learning, so ask me latter!!!
Thanks!!]]> 2016-11-23 11:29:28 UTC https://padlet.com/xanafig/fq20jkvbrx4z/wish/139561388
