A safe collaborative space for learning...

Note that that I have created this space because I firmly believe that teaching and learning should be cooperative and collective processes and by no means unidirectional. Everyone is welcome to contribute to this space in a constructive and respectful way, and I will be regularly moderating it to make sure everyone can feel safe contributing to it. While using this board, always adhere to UCL's code of conduct (click here to see it).

Well done everyone critically thinking about that paper and contributing your thoughts during the session, I really enjoyed the stimulating discussion! Here you have the slides I used.

See you next week for some discussion and practice on structuring popular science articles (check moodle for instructions and resources here W8).

1) Install Zotero here: https://www.zotero.org/ .

2) Then, open the app and in the 'Tools' tab in the menu at the top, download the web importer by clicking on 'Instal Browser Connector'.

3) Sometimes you need to restart your computer for Zotero's word plugin to appear.

We will be practising using it to insert your references in your assessment.

Well done everyone discussing the structure of the popular science articles we looked at today and starting to think about how you would write your own! Here you have the slides I used.

See you next week for some discussion and practice on writing the first catchy paragraph of a pop sci art and on citing and referencing (check Zotero installation instructions above and moodle for tutorial instructions and resources here Tutorial3).

I did give feedback to mostly everyone who had submitted it before last Thurs, but I hadn't submitted it! I will be submitting my feedback throughout the day today. Sorry about that!

Well done everyone writing those sentence to create a catchy first paragraph! I really enjoyed seeing how you worked together to create something fun and interesting, and the outcome was so good!

I hope this exercise helped you see how you can go about writing your article, but also how you can ask each other for help sometimes when you struggle with inspiration and creativity!

Here you have the slides I used where I include the paragraphs resulting from the collective exercise for each of the groups I was a tutor of. I suggest you look at other groups' paragraphs, since you all did an amazing job!

Well done everyone at using the marking rubric and knowledge from previous tutorials to evaluate the proposed popular science articles! Here you have the slides!

Thank you for being so engaged and collaborative this block! It was a pleasure being your tutor and I really enjoyed discussing with you about popular science articles, writing and research. It was also great to see you working together and the different creative approaches during the exercises I proposed!

Good luck with everything and see you around!
