"Origami" animated video

I would like to show you this pretty little work of art created in  2012 by Joanne Smithies, Eric De Melo Bueno, Michael Moreno, Hugo Bailly Desmarchelier y Camille Turon, students at ESMA,  Ecole Supérieure des Métiers Artistiques.

As Gonzalo Carretero comments on his blog Educación y Medios Audiovisuales, this  video poses several important values and concepts for education such as the importance of traditions, the respect for the elderly , the beauty that can be created with our hands, the need of determination and effort, the importance of imagination in a technological world.

I hope you enjoy it

The aim of the following video is to raise people's consciousness about the dangers of using smartphones while driving which cause a soaring number of victims in fatal car crashes. The video has been made by OVK, the Belgium association of road victims.

What other "risky uses of mobile phones"  should we avoid ?  Would tou be able to express it through emojis?

Conservative's victory at 2015 UK election

David Cameron’s Conservatives win UK elections with absolute majority

"We can make Great Britain greater still", promises David Cameron in his victory speech at the 2015 elections.




The results caused the resignation of three biggest losing parties Labour’s Ed Miliband, the Liberal Democrats’ Nick Clegg and Nigel Farage of UKIP.
The other winner is Nicola Sturgeon, leader of the Scottish National Party who has stated 
" Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined we’d win 56 out of Scotland’s 59 MPs".

Conservative victory  presents a challenge to the EU as David Cameron has promised a referendum over the continuation in the union for 2017.

9 May Europe Day 2015

Every 9 May Europe celebrates " unity and peace" on Europe Day.
Why a Europe Day?

The date marks the anniversary of the historical "Schuman Declaration". At a speech in Paris in 1950, the French foreign minister, Robert Schuman, set out his idea for a new form of political cooperation in Europe, which would make war between Europe’s nations unthinkable.

Obsolete Objects

Nowadays current technology is advancing so fast that lots of object that we used to be very popular in the past have fallen into disuse. Younger generations are not familiar with old-fashioned objects such as fax machine, rotary telephone, typewriter, quill, floppy disk , instant camera, radio receiver , compact casette or the phonograph.

Ask your parents or grandparents about these or other archaic objects. Does your family keep any of these objects? Have you ever used any of these antique objects?

Read about the museum of obsolete objects, a very interesting catalog of videos of outmoded artefacts.

Finalistas del IX Premio Espiral Edublogs 2015

Por primera vez hemos participado en el Premio Espiral Edublogs. Hace tres años que inicié mi experiencia con blogs en un grupo de trabajo que hicimos en el instituto, y descubrí esta genial herramienta con gran potencial educativo.Todavía me queda mucho por aprender, imprescindible y necesario en el proceso de enseñanza de todo docente.
Hace unos meses leí la convocatoria de estos premios por casualidad y decidí tomar como un reto nuestra participación en él, como motivación e incentivo para mejorar y continuar aprendiendo en este apasionante mundo de la blogosfera.
Fueron duras semanas de trabajo pero a la vez muy motivadoras y creativas.
Ser finalista ahora y haber competido con proyectos de tanta calidad me llena de satisfacción además de agradecimiento a Espiral Edublogs, y especialmente a todos los compañeros y alumnos que habéis hecho posible llegar hasta aquí.
Gracias
Isabel

Be inventive!

This is one of my favourite activities, inventions are a great topic because it  awakes pupils' creativity and imagination as well as practising their writing. Firstly we do an oral presentation of the theme and focus on original and useful gadgets as well as great inventions along history.

The next stage is for the pupils to make up their own invention, no matter how silly and absurd may seem, the important thing is to describe the gadget and its main functions and purposes in English.

Every year I have a good laugh at the projects as some of them are really fantastic and great fun to read.
