Evaluation of the Presentation of "Cooperative learning". SOFA SESSIONS group

EVALUATION of Celeste Escalera Béjar

Good job Your powerpoint presentation was very creative and dynamic, congratulations.

Work on it You have to improve your communication skills, I mean , look to the audience and not only to the teacher since it seem we weren't at the class and the presentation was only for the teacher.

Good jobThe idea of adding an index before the presentation was so clever because it clarify us what will you to talk about.

Good job The content was so well explained, moreover you include new information like two different techniques for practicing cooperative learning and a video and a puzzle to explain jigsaw technique. In addition, all of you know the topic and were able to respond the teacher questions.

Work on it Nevertheless, the confidence of all the members to talk in public wasn't the same so maybe you can meet more times and practice the presentation to motivate your peers security to

talk in public.

Well done sofa session's💪

This group has made a great job in general. Although some of the members were not confident at all, they have presented and demonstrated that all know about the topic. I suggest them to meet more all together face to face so they can know each other better and feel more confident about their performance and their mates´. In this way they will help and understand each other better. 

However I really enjoyed the presentation design with curtains and the information organization which I find very well structured. It caught all my attention. But once again I prefer not to write entire sentences constantly in the PowerPoint since we stop listening to our classmates in order to read what is written there. 

I want to mention that this group was the last one and it was easy to me to follow the information and to enhance my knowledge about cooperative learning and also to expand it. They gave us another perspective: the positive and negative interdependence. The positive one means that all are part of the group and the negative one that if something goes wrong it is only the fault of the person that did not fulfill her role. 

They spoke about the advantages and disadvantages which I do not think are real. As the teacher said I would prefer to speak about challenges instead of disadvantages because I do not see any on meeting outside the classroom time. Indeed I found it good and we have to learn to work in this way and to get used to it since is what we are going to find in the work world in most of the companies. We learn to be more tolerant, too. A key aspect of  cooperative learning. 

Coming back to the thing in matter, what I appreciate from this group is about they say about teacher´role. They said that "the teacher must create a highly structured and well-organized learning environment". I agree with them completely. This aspect is very important in order to work cooperatively and to achieve the objetives, the group ones about the roles and the ones related with the content. 

In addition, they showed us a new one technique which was reverse jigsaw. This technique is the same as jigsaw but as the name says starting the opposite. We have practicing it through and activity that I found easy to follow and interesting. 

Well done!! 👏👏

The presentation of this group was very cool! They made the slides dynamic, what got me attentive and interested on what they were going to say. They explained very well the topic, although there were some parts in which there were some confusions (like the term disadvantages when actually they were challenges). Apart from that, there were new ideas and innovative, such as the puzzle as an example of cooperative learning. Moreover, they didn’t have problems in answering the questions the teacher made them.

A few things to improve for the next presentation are: to explain all the steps of the activity before starting and making sure everyone got them clear, to not only speak to the teacher, but to the audience, and to meet outside the lesson more times and do not read the information (you must know it already) since it was visible that there was not an equal confidence on the project.

Good work!

EVALUATION by Cristina Álvarez Domínguez

The index was an excellent and original idea but you spent a lo ton tine focused on the tasks of each member and the objectives of the team.

The presentation in general was dynamic and easy to follow and the design of the PowerPoint catched my attention even though there was a lot of text in the presentation in some slides. 

Some of you were more fluent with the topic and felt more comfortable talking about it but there were some ideas that were not clear for you like the positive interdependence.

The video was good and explained well the ideaswhich made it an interesting part of the presentation that helped understanding the rest of it as well as the pictures you included.

You only looked at the teacher and it was like if the rest of the class didn't have to be involved in the presentation. What i most like about this presentation was the activity and how it made possible working in base groups and also in expert groups.

You should change that it looks like there a leader in the group. Be confident with the topic and interact with the other members.
