Unit3/Activity3- Review

Hi,

The Learning object that I choose for my review is the Quiz made by Luís. The reason why I choose this learning object is because I found this tool very interesting, since it give us some feedback about what we’ve just answered.

It is a small and simple Quiz that can be improved and increased whenever the author wants. It consists of a relevant 7 questions and focuses on the principal aspects of transparency .

I don’t know if the result of each test arrives at the author’s mailbox. Do you have configured this aspect?

This Quiz would be more attractive to the user if you put some images adequate to the content and if you put some colour in the background. I really don’t know if this is possible.

Did you use Quiz Faber to make this Quiz or another tool?

I considered the work interesting, motivating and captive. This Quiz is understandable to any one and represents a great way to know what people understand about transparency. The objective is to apply this test to Whom ?

At the end when it shows us a page with the results, and to synthesize the subjects/answers discussed in the Quiz you could give a list of links with bibliography. Or in the other hand, when it gives us feedback sending a message with the right option when we gave a wrong answer to question, in that same window, you could provide a link to a page that has the information needed to give the correct answer.

I hope you accept my suggestions and clarify my doubts.

Good Work!

Review of 2 Learning Objects

The first Learning Object that i reviewed was Sandra Brás work published in toonlet.com and the second is Pedro Teixeira´s video published on Youtube.
These Learning Objects were chosen for different reasons, such as, their content, simplicity and attraction.
First I will talk about Sandra´s work and then Pedro.
Sandra has made a simple and comic cartoon using a new tool: Toonlet that I really consider interesting, motivating and captive. This cartoon is understandable to any one.
She has made this cartoon that talks about the importance of The Learning Partner, a very interesting issue. She focused the importance of not feeling lonely while/during a study process, whether it might be a course or other learning situation. Sandra refers that e-students can combine meetings by Chat, e-mail, phone, personally, or other recurring to other technological means.
The results can be much more positive and higher and the learning process simpler and motivating.
Good and expressive cartoons were applied and very expressive too. The background color was carefully used and the dolls well chosen.
Pedro has made a video that explains very well the Theory of Cooperative Freedom. He gives us a brief explanation (like he said)…”in a few steps” about this theory. He focused in the principal aspects of the contents. He took on individual learning and collaborative and led us to Cooperative Learning.
In the video, Pedro uses key words and brief sentences, making the video very understandable and objective.
The video made by Pedro is simple and attractive, and due to the fact that he didn’t use too much colors and animations in the video it didn’t scattered the watcher’s attention, on the contrary, captive. He combined very well backgrounds and text together with images.
It´s a short term video that is not boring due to his short lengths and the combination of text and images.
The sound (music) accompanying the video is not too strong, so I considered it adequate.
Globally, I liked both works and my colleagues are to be congratulated for their Learning Objects.
