This week I had the role of the analyst, I had to give marks to my classmates, depending on the work done. I also have to make a final reflection on this activity. The main topic of this task is the introduction of technology in the classroom. We have learned how important it is to be aware of this and what it implies. For the ease and safety of both teachers and students.

The best part of this activity was when we chose the tools. It was interesting to remember everything we have used during this course. The forced, discovered and previously used. At one point we had all the tools but there were 2 that didn't suit us and we changed them. It was very cool to remember the name and the tool together. We have learned how important it is to be aware of this and what it implies. For the ease and safety of both teachers and students and that is very useful.

Meanwhile, the worst part was figuring out the method of how to evaluate the tools. It was confusing and we didn't know if we were doing it correctly. We have been very lost with this, we didn't know how to do it but in the end we found a way. The problem was that we didn't have enough freedom because we had to evaluate from 0 to 6 stars and group categories.

The best group moment was when we were all together thinking and discussing the questions posed on Wednesday. It was a way for the group to express themselves and think together. It was not very interesting but being together made everything easier.

As for the worst moment, it was thinking about the method. It was complicated. We had no idea and we were very lost. It was a bit overwhelming because we didn't know what to do or how to do it. So it was frustrating. Fortunately at the end of the day we had an idea that was acceptable.

We have learned together the importance of technology in the classroom and how it directly or indirectly affects students. Before, we were not aware of all that it entails and some aspects we had not thought about.  With this activity you discover the impact and all that it entails.

What we need to keep is the organization since we have divided this activity and we have done it correctly, without the need for video calls or extra work. We are learning to make better use of our time.

What we need to improve is to increase creativity and think big. Sometimes it is difficult but I am sure that little by little we are achieving it.

This task is totally related to the degree. On how a teacher has to take into account the risk and what technology means in a classroom and the danger and safety of some tools.

Yes, I think there is a social relationship of this content. This is something that requires a huge importance. The safety of the children is essential but also the facility and the dynamicity of how some tools are used. We can't use programs that are too difficult because they are children. Above all we have to focus on the fact that it helps them to learn. 

Reflection on the topic:
To be honest, this activity has not been fun, rather boring. But I think it is also interesting to do things you don't like and learn to deal with them.

Despite this, you have to be aware of what technology means nowadays and its importance in and out of school. It is crucial to cover these issues about the websites that are used and to know what this entails.

The issue of safety in the classroom and the protection of children is the most important in my opinion. It is something we need to be aware of.
On the subject of evaluation, it is essential to know how to evaluate the different aspects and how they work. With this rubric we have realised EVERYTHING that has to be taken into account both for evaluation and for a tool to be enough effective. 

The creation of our method has been to give stars for each category that it touches. (This is explained in the projects section). I think it is not a bad method. By doing this task we have learned that evaluating is not an easy task where you give a random grade but you have to take into account MANY aspects.

In the future I am sure that in schools children will be working with laptops and tablets and that is why it is important that as future teachers we learn about the impact they have on society and about which applications are useful and safe to provide good and adequate teaching which is the main thing. Technology is something innovative, which in my opinion has more advantages than disadvantages, it is a way for pupils to learn to investigate and use it for themselves. That is why it is very necessary to value it and protect it, as long as it is not used dangerously, it is very relevant for LEARNING.

In conclusion, I think that this activity, although it was not super entertaining, is very beneficial for our future as teachers because it covers things that we need to keep up to date on.
