Open CLIL bank of common knowledge:
Hello everybody! Here we are with a new task of TICS. This time I have accomplished a really good idea. We shared a bank of common knowledge in pinterest, each of the 32 students of the class posted 6 resources free and without copyright in a common board of pinterest, so from now we will surely find it easier to achieve fantastic free resources for our classes.
I liked this activity not only because its utility for our future, but also because it allows me to reflect on the importance of checking the copyright of the material we share. Some pages of nice resources doesn't give you permission to distribute the content in any way and so it cannot used in a class. As a teacher we should bear this in mind before uploading things to our school blogs, or using these material for our lessons.
Thanks to this activity and to the subject in general I am becoming aware of this, therefore, I will take it into account for the future,
You are more than welcome to visit our pinterest board and from now you can also see a widget of our board on the right part of this blog.
These are the 6 resources/pages that I posted with a brief description:
