Feedback from today's meeting

The following was discussed:
  • Groups presenting their research need to set up before 8:30
  • Research groups will be notified on their topics well in advance, extending their research time
  • A break-down of the topic will be available to the whole class and this becomes the marking criteria
  • Research needs to focus on technical information, giving cultural/historical data only if it is relevant
  • The whole class need to read up on the topic before the presentation

Other points...on reflection:

The general feedback I am getting is a dissatisfaction with the quality of research. If this is the case, why are the marks that you are awarding reflecting highly competent presentations?

I am yet to receive a comment with your name and blog link (have got one from Gienevieve!)... If I don't get them this week I have nothing to mark.

Poor attendance and late arrival.... deal with it!

Please answer the following questions by Thursday 10 March:
  • Define; Learner/learning
  • Define;Teacher/teaching
  • What motivates you to learn?
  • How do you learn?
  • How do you know you undestand something?

Please note: Thursday Design Theory 10 March has been swopped with History (Ancient Rome), and next week History 14 March has been swopped with Theory (Carving and Casting)

    1.knowledge which has been gained from different means of media etc.
    2.to guide or instruct.its when being taught.to give knowledge,skill or wisdom to a person;to instruct or train(a person).
    3.what motivates me to learn, is when the person teaching me has an energetic feel for what he/she wants to teach me.if there is no intreaction then i cant help but to get bord and do my own thing.and the person should know there facts before standing infront of the class.
    4.i learn when the person teaching engages with me. when im intrerested in something i tend to listen more intensively.and i love visuals so yip that gets my brain waves going :)..
    5.i know that i understand something,is normaly when i tell everyone around me whose makin a noise to 'shhhh' ...and when i can explain to the next person if he/she didnt understnd a word of what has been said.

    hope my answers r valid :)
