 ===== Description of the project ===== ===== Description of the project =====
  
 +The inspirational idea for this project comes from the reading of an essay of the University of Leeds,
 +Sustainability Research Institute about Critical and Reflective thinking
 +( [[http://​arts.brighton.ac.uk/​__data/​assets/​pdf_file/​0013/​6304/​Critical-and-Reflective-Thinking.pdf]]).
 +This reading lets us think and consider the importance of reflection in every aspect of life.
 +From this starting point, we did some researches about the beneficial effects of reflecting in the
 +process of learning and teaching.
 +Reflection is important for teachers because it makes teachers aware of what they are doing and how
 +they teach.
 +According to Henderson (1996) “reflective thinking has an important place in education system, as a
 +questioning method that features caring others’ feelings and pays attention to constructivism in
 +learning and as a whole of creative problem solving activities” (cited in Poyraz and Usta, 2013).
 +"​Reflection is a beneficial practice to support professional development of teacher and their efforts to
 +improve student learning "​(Fendler,​ 2003; Hoffman, Artiles and Lopez, 2003).
 +Due to these reasons, reflection has become a key strategy in the teaching/​learning process in this
 +project.
 +Reflective teaching is a process where teachers think over their teaching practices, and kind of
 +lessons, analyzing how something is taught and how the practice might be improved or changed for
 +better learning outcomes. Some points of consideration in the reflection process might be what is
 +currently being done, why it's being done and how well students are learning ( what/​why/​how). You
 +can use reflection as a way to simply learn more about your own practice, improve a certain practice
 +( for example, small groups, peer observation and cooperative learning ) or to focus on a problem
 +students are having.
 +Reflective teaching therefore implies a more systematic process of collecting, recording and
 +analysing our thoughts and observations,​ as well as those of our students, through the use of ICT
 +tools and then going on to making changes.
 +
 +===== About methodologies =====
 +
 +We really believe that the project will involve pupils in their learning process and helps them to become more open minded and innovative throught digital methodologies ​ in 4 subjects, 2 humanistic History and English, and 2 scientific, ICT and Science.
 +Teachers and students will collaborate to select different methodologies to apply such as: flip teaching, CLIL, cooperative learning, IT time line, debate, formative assessment, google/​moodle classroom, learning by doing, project work, constructivism method, etc.
