Week 2

Hello everybody


Websearch:
This week has been full of surprices, first of all I want to mention that I never suspected that there were so many search engines I was only familiar with the most popular (google, yahoo, bing and ask) but I found this site: list of search engines and by the way, this webpage also has a video search engine, and I also discovered this one:  Phil Bradleys website and the types of search engines. With all this information people sometimes feel overwhelm, so here I recommend some tips that will help you improve the quality of your searches. Here you will find more interesting articles related to search engines and technology, have you wonder: what's the future of search engines?.


Bloom's taxonomy and the ABCD model.
I admit that I was familiar with Bloom's taxonomy but not with digital's taxonomy, by the way, why is this important? it will help us a lot when formulating learning objectives, creating lesson plans, and designing syllabus. I found some articles that thoroughly describe the lower order of thinking skills (LOTS) and the higher order of thinking skills (HOTS) and also the domains and subdomains of thinking skills, follow this link for more information.

I discovered a nice method to state our learning objectives, after reading these articles and some slides I was able to describe my L.O. in a clear way, using the ABCD model (Audience, Behaviour, Condition and Degree),
I think that this course is leading us step by step to create bigger goals and to achieve our final project.

In general I think that this week has been very productive, all of the activities in wich we were engaged: commenting blogs, post on the nicenet, reading articles, visiting websites, updating our blogs, I am so grateful for this.
