Hello everybody!! As the last week I was the star, this week I'm going to be like a mix of star-facilitator. Firstly, I must say that this task is being very hard, because working with all the class is so stressing! The principal aim of this week was to take to stage what we have been thinking the previous week. So, on Monday we divided all the roles, and I chose more people to be on stage (because as you will know if you read my last post, I was the chief of the casting). Besides, Linda aked us to do a newspaper with the news that each group had chosen for each subtitle of complexity.
Here you have the result of our newspaper!! The news we searched on internet were not that well than the rest of the groups, so they were not chosen to be represented.
We decided to do a colorful cardboard because using colours can make you undertand better the content.

Wednesday, was the day of the recording!! It was very funny! As I was in the editor's group and also I was one of the chieves, we had a short meeting with Jose(the boss). Each chief of each new started to say what he/she was going to do. As my work was deciding who was going to act. I was in one of the set of news helping!
After recording, the cameras of each set were with Jose to put in common all that they have recorded. When the recording was over, we went home and started to talk in Whatsapp and in other classes to finish other things.
I must say that although I enjoy this task a lot because I love all the thing related to acting, I was very stressed!! Because firstly, a lot of people want to participate in the video and a lot of people were asking to me things like: Paula, what can I do? / Can I be extra? / Can I be interviewer?
Organisation is the most difficult thing when you work with a lot of people! But finally, we divided the work regarding to each new.
Finally, the programme was called complexity news! Because we can't forget that this task was about that! But, I must say that we probbably made a mistake in not explaining very deeply to other people the task about complexity. But, I'm happy with the result and I can't wait to see the video!!
Thanks for reading my post!!

Hello everybody , I am Sara and It is the first time that I am the translator. And now I am going to describe with my words , the most important words in this task.
Technology: It is a very important aspect in this task because over time we are evolving into a technology education that causes different effects on education.Such as the step of using textbooks to use computers and whiteboards .
Complex organisation:Different school leaders have a different way depending on which lead their beliefs, passions, education .... So each school will be organized in a different way.And each school teachers act according to the law and to decisions of the leader.
Connections with peers: This is a very important concept, because the relationships between classmates can affect both positively and negatively. If children do not have good relationships with their classmates will affect the motivation in class, academic performance ...
Cooperative Learning :is a type of education that seeks to organize activities in the classroom to turn into a social and academic learning experience. Students work in groups to accomplish tasks collectively. The teacher is responsible for explaining the activity and students are responsible for solving it. The teacher is the guide of the activity.
Emergent knowledge: Is what we learn from a complex system´s interactiones. It is open and flexible.

Hi everyone! I'm Miriam from The Prickles and this time I am one of the stars of my team, specifically, the second one, so the week I`ll work the most will be in two weeks as a theater director.
On Monday, Linda explained the task, and she said that, in this time, the task would have 2 stars, so the faces of my friend Paula and I, were illuminated because we were the only two people of our team who had not been stars and we didn't want to be stars alone, we prefer to do it together.
This task is a little bit different about the others. This time, the task has a duration of 3 weeks, the stars have to work with different roles (facilitator-star) and all the whole group have to work for this task together, so really, from my point of view, I'm not going to work with my team at 100% because, most of the time that I will spend in the classroom, I'm going to be with other people that are directors of theater, as me, or/and actors. So this is going to be interesting, because all of us are going to work as one, helping everyone, and is not going to matter which group we are in.

At first, I have to say I was scared about being a star. While all my partners already were, I was slipping away of this role, but finally I had to take it over, so here I am as star. I want to say that, at the moment, it hasn't been as bad as I had imagined.

I hope to spend a nice time for these following weeks. Paula and I are going to do a good job, just like all the stars of my team and the following stars after us:)
Have a nice weekend everyone!
Have a nice weekend everyone!

Hello
everyone!! I am Mar and this week I´m the journalist, that is, I have to
describe the dynamic of the week, and this is what I am going to do right now!
On Monday,
as every week since January, our teacher Linda explained us the task of this
week which was about the complexity at school. Firstly, we had to explore what
is “complexity”, and secondly, how this affect the relationships at school. To
perform the task, we had to read two chapters provided by the teacher. Once
the teacher explained us the task, we started to do it!! As usually, we
distributed the roles and began to do the task.
On Tuesday
afternoon, we had lunch at University and then kept doing the work. We divided
the task to work better, so four people read one chapter and the other five
read the second one. Then, we explained the chapters each other, and from there,
we searched on the internet an example in news about education related to the
first chapter and also we had to think in examples of the different types of
relationships explained in the second chapter. We
didn´t stay long time doing this task, due to the most part of the work did on
Wednesday.
On
Wednesday, the Stars stood up in the beginning of the class, half of them were
“editors” and the other were “actors”. With the aid of the teacher, all the
class was divided into these two groups. She, the teacher, explained us the
task that the editors and actors had to do, and everybody started to perform
it. This task will be finished on Monday, and on Wednesday the whole students
will have to record it, that will be like a newscast where the actors explained
the examples of the different types of relationships that every group invented.
In
conclusion, the task of this week will be finished the following week, where I
think we are going to learn a lot doing it, and have fun due to some classmates
will act like real journalists!!
That´s all
for this week, see you next week!!

TASK 7: STAR OR EDITOR?
Hey guys! I'm Paula from The Prickles and this week I have had the
pleasure to be the voice of my group : THE STAR.First of all, I must
confess that I was really scared because I hate talking in front of a
big audience. I didn't want to be star! But finally, this role
hasn't been as bad as I think. What is more, I have enjoyed quite
much.
On Monday, when I arrived to the class and I realised that this
task would be presented by two stars I got very happy. My classmate
Miriam and I were the last of the group to be stars, and all the
weeks before we had been seeing how the members of our group did an
amazing job. So, I decided to be a little more confident and try my
best for this task!
I must tell you that I didn't understand quite much the task, but
all my group tried to help me, which meant a lot to me. The task was
about complexity within education and as we are a very big group we
divided us into 2 different groups for finishing the work early. My
objective as a star was to collect 6 news from a newspaper related
with the 6 different subtittles within this chapter. When I started to
read the chapter, i got so nervous because I didn't understand what
Linda wants me to do exactly. But my group encouraged me and I tried
to be more relaxed and read more deeply.
Wednesday arrives, and I thought that I had to do a exposition in
front of my classmates. Thanks to god, it didn't happen, and Linda
asked all the stars to help each other and to work together during
the next 2 hours. All the stars put in common all the news and
finally, we chose the 6 better news.
Although, this task is going to
be longer, and my role as a star is going to last at least two more
weeks, I would like to give some advices for next stars:
Guys, don't get so
stressed, doing whatever you do, your group is the best support . And
if they are good groupmates, they will help you a lot! Anyway, it is very
normal that you are scared. All the beginings are not always very
good, and when you are got out of routine and try new things, being
panic is quite normal. Don't be afraid of faking, be afraid of not
trying new things and fall into routine.
As Forrest Gump said: " Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you never know what you are gonna get ". So, be prepared instead of afraid.
Hope you enjoy it!
