Teachers Discussion WhatsApp Activity 1

08/10/2019 à 12:50 - Imhof Daniel: competitons always seem to be fun for students 😉
08/10/2019 à 12:50 - Imhof Daniel: some German algorithms are online, too, but we're on autumn holidays now, so my students won't work on your algorithms... 🙁
08/10/2019 à 15:21 - Illan Inmaculada: Don't worry, we've got time
08/10/2019 à 15:22 - Illan Inmaculada: I didn't try kahoot yet, maybe next week
08/10/2019 à 23:37 - odjenv: Sorry. I just sent an email asking for a reply... oups.... see you soon there.
08/10/2019 à 23:49 - Illan Inmaculada: I'm not sure about the content of your email, I read all the WhatsApp messages, next week we will work with your algorithms and I'll kahoot.
We don't have autumn holidays so we are able to work in two next weeks.
I watched your video, it seems that your students enjoyed a lot. Hope so do mine
09/10/2019 à 10:35 - odjenv: Great. 😊
14/10/2019 à 15:49 - Illan Inmaculada: Hi,
Some of my students are answering your algorithms.
Next Thursday we'll go to the computers classroom and try to solve as much as possible and also to do kahoot.
Maybe it is too much for an hour.
I'll tell you what happens
14/10/2019 à 19:01 - odjenv: Sounds great. Today the secobd group among my younger students played the german kahoot questions. They enjoyed it so much that they wrote new questions for you all. This should be finished tomorrow by the other group through my new kahoot account😉. From tomorrow my students fo not have my class before one month. Next class on nov 18th. I wiuld lije to start your task in probabilities then.
14/10/2019 à 19:16 - Illan Inmaculada: We haven't created that page.
What do you want to do? Students do pi experiment and record a video explaining the experience and share a spreadsheet with their data.
Do you both like this idea?
If so I can open a page to share the videos and another one with a share spreadsheet.
I'm waiting for your opinions.
14/10/2019 à 19:17 - Illan Inmaculada: It is superb that you both have autumn holidays,  here in Hellìn it is still hot, but the weather forecast says that temperatures are going to decrease, but not much
14/10/2019 à 19:18 - odjenv: I like your idea of opening these two new pages and i agree with your offer.
14/10/2019 à 19:19 - Illan Inmaculada: I will wait for Daniel's agreement
14/10/2019 à 19:45 - Imhof Daniel: I totally agree.

Good to hear, that you and your students like the kahoot and enhance it 😉
15/10/2019 à 20:20 - Illan Inmaculada: I've just created three pages about pi.
Take a look and make as many changes you think
15/10/2019 à 20:26 - Illan Inmaculada: Another thing, we should assess activity 1 when it finishes.
It is a good idea , I believe,  to know our students opinions.
Maybe any of you could create a form in Google drive and embed it as a sub page of this activity
16/10/2019 à 09:23 - odjenv: I agree with your pi  pages. I still need some time before assessing activity 1 to post the kahoot games made by my students yesterday. Later I could offer to write the assessment sheet through the app mentimeter.com since my school paid to have access to this app. We need students players to kahoot first.
16/10/2019 à 15:21 - odjenv: French students' names are now added on pages "algorithms". I am sorry that my too many students lead to unbalanced teams since I let them choose on their own where to contribute. I will watch more carefully for the future activities.
16/10/2019 à 15:24 - odjenv: Concerning the various kahoot I would like to open a subpage named "games" to page on vocabulary. Daniel, this would mean that you would post yours there. What do you think?
16/10/2019 à 15:27 - Illan Inmaculada: Did you do another different kahoot?
16/10/2019 à 15:28 - Illan Inmaculada: I don't know how to manage the presentation of kahoot and the record of a video
16/10/2019 à 15:28 - Illan Inmaculada: Did someone help you?
16/10/2019 à 15:34 - odjenv: I did not post the kahoot yet. I will let you know when I try. Concerning posting videos I have found my way where I can help if you have questions.
16/10/2019 à 15:35 - Illan Inmaculada: Ok, thanks a lot
17/10/2019 à 12:43 - Illan Inmaculada: Today we have been working in etwinning. My students tried to decipher your algorithms,  some of them had a strange solution
17/10/2019 à 12:44 - Illan Inmaculada: We also have played Kahoot, the one Daniel did and one of the French kahoots
17/10/2019 à 12:44 - Illan Inmaculada: Now I will send you photos
17/10/2019 à 12:45 - Illan Inmaculada: I also have created three new pages,  there each student have to post a congrat when the algorithm is solved correctly
17/10/2019 à 12:46 - Illan Inmaculada: Soon we will create a kahoot of vocabulary about statistics and probability

17/10/2019 à 12:47 - Illan Inmaculada: We didn't use mobile phones because it is forbidden at school
17/10/2019 à 13:23 - Illan Inmaculada: Please, tell your students if they can read the answers and if the are ok then write a message in the corresponding answer group oage
21/10/2019 à 08:44 - odjenv: My students are on autumn holidays till nov 4th. Thus I cannot see them for two weeks. I will read the twinspace by the end of this week and check the strange solutions you found. Strange algorithms  are possible from the french side since i could not check them all. This class has 36 students one hour weekly with me alone as the teacher. My first  priority was then that students get motivation to write and to post they algorithm. Since this first goal is now reached i will check better next time. When my students could not answer some algorithms from partners i told them to post a question in return. For now i am teaching two full days as a teacher trainer and the 3rd day is all for my very old parents. Just give me the end of this week!😉
21/10/2019 à 11:22 - Illan Inmaculada: I'm not in a hurry, of course. Maybe we don't work in twinspace in two weeks. It's only was a piece of information about our work. Enjoy your holidays!!!!
23/10/2019 à 20:27 - Imhof Daniel: The German autumn Holidays are over, so we worked on the TwinSpace today. I always thought the work with the algorithms is just a rational warm up, but: those students, whose birthday had been figured out by your students, were really happy and excited about that 💖👍🏻. I really liked that 👏🏻.

They're supposed to solve some more as a homework 👍🏻.
23/10/2019 à 20:30 - Imhof Daniel: Thanks Inma to add the pages regarding the pi-activity. I've got a question on that: in the third step of discovering pi, they're asked to calculate the area of the circle -- but they will do it using their calculator and using pi, won't they?

I just don't to get it wrong, so please tell me, if they're allowed to use pi from their calculator or not 🤔
23/10/2019 à 20:30 - Imhof Daniel: ‎IMG-20191023-WA0000.jpg (fichier joint)
23/10/2019 à 20:49 - Illan Inmaculada: They are allowed
23/10/2019 à 20:49 - Illan Inmaculada: The question is to discover that the proportion is pi/4
23/10/2019 à 20:50 - Illan Inmaculada: And the to calculate the quotient with the rice
23/10/2019 à 20:50 - Illan Inmaculada: They have to associate pi with the probability
23/10/2019 à 20:58 - Imhof Daniel: Alright, thanks!
29/10/2019 à 18:54 - odjenv: I just followed Inmas's advice by transfering FR students' answers to the corresponding subpages titled answers group nb. I am sorry Inma that this is all I can do now without altering students' words.
29/10/2019 à 18:55 - odjenv: What do you think of also transfering answers to the corresponding subpages titled answer. I think that the results would be clearer at first sight.
29/10/2019 à 18:56 - Illan Inmaculada: Don't worry.  Maybe it is a lot of work.  It's only was an idea because each one can see if anyone has answered his puzzlu
29/10/2019 à 19:21 - odjenv: As promissed before I wrote a subpage hosting evaluation of algorithms task. I thought of experiencing the embedded tools called twinpoll and discussion. Surprisingly I  could not find the way to add a second question in the poll. This subpage is not published yet waiting for your opinion. Is it efficient enough this way or should I use another tool as google form for a more detailed inquiry?
29/10/2019 à 19:24 - odjenv: Inma your photos of your students playing the french kahoot are very nice to us. Maybe they could be posted in the twinspace to prove collaboration?
