Activities during topic 5

Activities for all learners

We are taking a different approach in topic 5. During this last week you are going to reflect on and discuss your experience from this course and your view on learning in your group and in your individual reflection and you are going to interact with the other course participants during the final webinar.

Webinar

In the Webinar – Lessons learnt – future practice on Thursday, April 25 10:00-12:00 am (CEST) all groups will share their experience from this course, see "PBL group work" below. We will thus reflect and discuss our experience from this course and how we will move forward.

Recording

PBL group work

Discuss and reflect on the journey together as a group. Suggested themes for discussion:
Insights: What are the most valuable insights that you take with you from this course?
The ride: How did you find collaborating in an online PBL group for this purpose?
Imagine: that you can use all/most/selected suggestions from both your group and the other groups, and visualize what kind of teaching and learning then will take place.
Feelings/experiences: What have you really experienced? How was the ride? How has it affected your feelings?
Take-away: What would you like to take with you into the future? Suggestions for improving H.E.?
Questions: What questions do you still have?
Collect your group reflection into some form of creative presentation, i.e. a film, a drama, a song, a Canva-poster, a slideshow or something completely different. Feel free! 😍 If you want you can also include links to earlier topic productions. The presentation should take no more than 10 minutes. Also post your creation in the discussion forum as well, as usual.
Be prepared to present your findings at the final webinar for the other groups.

Individual learning reflections

Based on your previous reflective posts and experience gained throughout the course, summarize and critically reflect on your learning and development. We would like to remind you that this post is mandatory if you want to receive your course certificate. The final summarizing blog post should contain approximately 400 words. You can use the questions below to guide your reflection:

What are the most important things that you have learnt through your engagement in this course? Why?
How will your learning influence your practice?
What are your thoughts about didacticts for sustainability in your own context?
What are you going to do as a result of your involvement in this course? Why?
What suggestions do you have (activities and/or in general) for development of didacticts for sustainability in your own teaching or context?
