This week I decided to make a Prezi. It's my very first one ever but I got the hang of it closer to the end of making it using animations and all that other stuff. I went into depth with popular culture and peer based learning. I think my topic can go in many different directions as far as popular culture but I used a few classmates as well as the interner sources to ask what comes to mind when "popular culture" and "peer based learning" and included it in my presentation. Have a good week :)
I liked your prezi and the points you were trying to get across. I agree with you on advantages to peer based learning. Teachers allow the foundation for your knowledge but they must also follow guidelines when they teach. When you learn from your peers, you get to learn things you wouldn't anywhere else and you can also bounce ideas off of each other. I do believe there is a disadvantage to peer based learning. Along with peer based learning, you also have peer pressure, or pressure to do bad things with friends. However, I believe the good outweighs the bad. Good job! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I totally agree with you on this peer based learning stuff. I'm glad teachers are beginning to take notice that we may learn better when we ask our peers for help.
ReplyDeleteI like your project. I can tell that you spent a lot of time working on it. I think prezi is a great tool and you obviously used it to its full potential. You have an ineresting approach to the idea of peer based learning
