Tool 3: Image Generators & Mashups

This picture was captured in S. Valantine's Day.


Here in this picture, all the friend are helping to hold a heart and they are sharing the same heart, so this is the message of this picture "We all are friends".







In our class, we encourage the students to drink milk. Where is your mustache!

We teach to student How important is to drink milk everyday, we show them most of the variety of milk products they can find as chocolate, yoghurt.

We sing a song of cow named "Lola"

And we are friends of the cow "Lola".

Tool 2: Building Community & Comments

1. What are your thoughts about building an online education community and participating in a PLN?
This is a great Opportunity to learn and share our experiences. Already I have been learning a lot with the YouTube videos and with TeacherTube videos. So, we have a little experience on this. I think must of us are visual learners, and with the videos and a good explanation we can learn procedures and a lot of things by following step by step all the video. And after we performed the procedures, we can give a feedback to other people and for the poster of the video to keep improving in all aspects.

When we post a video where we show a special procedure or routine, it is very important to know the opinion of the people who is viewing and analyzing our posts. This encourages us to keep posting more videos and more material.

2. What point stood out to you from the commenting advice?
When we are doing comments, we have to do constructive comments that help to the community to grow and to improve as a group. We have to do an effort to share our ideas, this will impulse the poster and other members to keep in touch sharing and adding more info and experiences.

And when we are the posters of blogs, we have to invite to the community to interact and use the communication by directly ask for comments, by declaring we are learners and we are open to new ways to think, etc.
