TRANSLATOR TASK 9
TRANSLATOR: SILVIA
For this week's task, we selected 4 key concepts related to the Geek Component, Methodological and Pedagogical Aspect and the Theoretical Framework (2 concepts):
1. Geek Component: DIGITAL LITERACY
Digital Literacy refers to the ability to effectively use digital tools and
platforms. Since we created a diagram in Genially to organize our digital
learning tools, we’re showing that we know how to make good use of technology,
with apps and platforms, to support our learning process. This overall reflects
the geek aspect.
2.
Methodological and Pedagogical Aspect: LEARNER-CENTERED APPROACH
This activity was based on the idea that we had to create a mindmap of our own
learning environments. Since we identified and categorised the tools into three
categories (reading, doing and reflecting, discussing) we were participating in
a constructivist learning process. So, this way, autonomy and personal
thinking,which are part of the main principles of pedagogy, are enhanced.
3. Theoretical Framework: CONNECTIVISM
This theory highlights the importance of digital tools in the learning process.
Our PLE diagram, which outlines the tools we used for reading, doing and
reflecting and discussing, has a lot to do with this theory since it basically
highlights how learning is distributed through a web of connections and how
digital learning tools are part of the process.
4. Theoretical Framework: SELF-REGULATED LEARNING
This theory explains how learners set goals, monitor, and reflect on their
learning. Since we categorised our tools into "Read," "Doing and Reflecting,"
and "Discuss", we are planning and reflecting on our own learning.
