The economic sectors

Flipped classroom

Introducció

Hola a totes i tots, Una de les eines que em van cridar més l’atenció de totes

les que vam veure l’últim dia del curs va ser la “flippedclassroom”. No n’havia sentit a parlar abans i la veritatés que em sembla un mètode genial per millorar la comprensió de l’alumnat a l’hora d’entendre la temàtica corresponent i sobre tot a l’hora de fer elsdeures. La meua reflexió és que sembla mentida que aquesta siga una eina 2.0, que sembla una cosa tan moderna i nova, quan realment hauríem d’utilitzaraquest mètode molt sovint i des de sempre! Penso que és la manera natural d’aprendre, molt més que la que usem normalment, i els alumnes ho agraeixen.

Introducció

És per aquest motiu, i perquè pensava que podiafuncionar amb els meus alumnes, que sónpersones amb un nivell no gaire bo d’anglès (la majoria), que em vaig decidir a preparar una sessió del tema d’economia amb aquestformat. I aquí teniu el resultat:

L’alumnat fent la tasca a classe

Comentaris a l’activitat

• La veritat és que no m’esperava obtenir un resultat tan satisfactori… L’alumnat va trobar moltinteressant aquesta manera de treballar, sobretotpel fet de poder estar assistits mentre feien la tasca encomanada. Com ja he dit tenen bastantadificultat pel que fa a la llengua anglesa i això elsha facilitat molt la feina. Aquesta vegada ningúm’ha dit: només he copiat l’enunciat perquè no he entés l’exercici! Per tant, confirmo que ha estat una bona experiència tant per a ells i elles com per a mi que de ben segur tornarem a repetir.
