Webinar Presentation

Today we had the first webinar in our I.C.T in Education Course with Karen Triquet. 

In today's class we had a group assignment in which we had to make a slide as a class. Each group had to make one card on the slide and the topic was on Critical Thinking and How to improve this in students. The instructions for this assignment were clear and easy to understand. Make a group of four or five people. Name your group and using images, video links, words or anything else to answer the following question 'What might critical thinking look and sound like in the 21st century classroom'.

Although we did not have a lot of time I think my group did contribute its 2 cents to the overall slide.

We spent a few minutes talking about what we should name ourselves and in the end we decided on the name 'Powerful Minds'. 

So to answer the question 'What might critical thinking look and sound like in the 21st century classroom' we had to ask ourselves another question first. What does critical thinking actually look and sound like? We came up with the answer by collaborating on the ideas that we had as a group. Let me tell you that answering this particular question which has many right answers on one card of a slide as a group was more time-consuming than I had originally thought. But we managed to do so in time and awaited our turn to present our viewpoint. Underneath the slide we had to write a short paragraph about our slide in the notes section. At the end of this post you can find an image of our work and if I get permission I'll post the rest of the slides at the end of our Module.

As always I welcome constructive criticism so please feel free to comment and share your thoughts.
