Personal reflection on C&D thinking and mind mapping.

 Personal reflection on C&D thinking and mind mapping.

Last class we were talking about a very complex topic : What is a computer? At first you might think that it is very easy to reply that , but no . You can't go and just google it ,because it will take you to basic information or to answers you  already know .
So we learned that there are two kinds of questions ,Convergent and  Divergent .
The first ones are questions like : Who ? ,Where? , What ? or When ? . These take you to basic information to start gaining knowledge about your topic . These are simple questions and it is easy find the corresponding  information .However  , without them you could never be able to ask Divergent questions , because these “simple questions “ are the basis to start new reflections .
About Divergent questions : these are very important and at the same time the hardest to ask , because you need previous knowledge .So you will have to think harder to get to them !  The advantage to use them is that they are not only much more interesting that Conversion questions ,  but they also  promote reflection and Knowledgement  networks ( with previous knowledge )as well as the use of creativity to create them !

Another tool  that we used in class was the mind map ,they taught us to use specific mind map-apps that were in my personal opinion very easy and fun to use !
I think that they are practical ,useful  and with just one look you can see the totality of the topic !
 According to the Gestalt law , the humans perceive better the whole as the sums of different parts.That means , by using mind maps you can memorise  things much better and quicker .

Thats me using a mind map to orginanice my ideas  from  the post you are reading right now !

That is why I strongly recommend you to use these new tactics to increase your academical rendition .
 At first you might think that it's a bit hard ,but with practice and repetition it will become easier and  easier.  :D Good luck !!

About me

Hello, I am John and will make a short description about me.

In this post you will read a lot about football because it is a big part of my life. I like watching and playing football with my brothers and friends.

Friends

I am in 4th class of secondary level. I like my school very much. I have a lot of friends and we get on very well with each other. I like being with them because we always spent a really good time. We are together with many of them since kindergarden level. That is why we have many stories in common.

Kindergarden

Pets

I have two dogs because my family and I like animals very much. One of  them is female, she is the oldest with 8 years old. My parents found her, hurt in the street and they rescued her. My other dog is a Boyero de Berna and is 2 years old. I usually take them for a walk when I come back from school and enjoy it very much.

Sports

I love sports. I think they are an important issue because you can interact with friends and nature or even get to know new people. Football is the best sport in the world, in my point of view. I consider it simply perfect. I have a team with some friends in a club called Atalaya since we were 8 or 9 years old and my position there is midfielder. We enjoy a lot playing there together and  we also take it very seriously. Fortunately, we won this tournament six times. We are still playing almost all Saturdays.

Atalaya

Football at school

We can do some additional activities when school is over. You train and then you can be selected to play on Saturday mornings against other schools in a tournament called FICDA. Last year I played as a Forward. During 2016 we finished finished in the fourth place in the table. Hopefully we can improve our position during 2017!

This is my post about me, I hope you like it.

About us post

Hey Guys!

We are Nicole S. ,Cata P. and Sofia H. and in this post we are going to present ourselves and talk about what our post are going to be about through the year.


In this blog we are going to post our personal opinion and feelings about the things,we learn at school or with the media's,and the way we learn them .For example we are not going to post tutorials but we are going to let your know how was the process for us and what we felt or thought about it . It would be interesting to know your opinion so please let us know what you think by commenting below!

About us post

Paula Foster and Micaela Stieglitz are students of the Goethe Schule, that is located in Buenos Aires, Argentina. In our Informatic class we had to create a blog to tell the world about or classes. To inaugurate the blog we would like to talk a little bit ABOUT US:

I am 15 years old and was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. My family has 6 members: My mother Sabine, my father Walter, my sister Sofia, me and my two little brothers Niko and Marco.

I like sports, like athletics or hockey. I am also interested about the environment because I think we should take care of it.

At school the subjects I most like are Arts and sport. Nevertheless, I know that a lot of subjects are important for our future, like for example English or informatics. In our informatic classes we are starting this year with a new project. We are going to write a blog each, which will be available for the whole word! I would recommend to read it to know about what we are learning in our informatic classes in Argentina. I also think it will be interesting for students from schools in other countries to make an exchange about what we learn at school.

My name is Paula und I was born in Tübingen, Germany. I have been here with my family in Argentina for a month. My little sister and my little brother are at the same school as I do.

In Germany I was in a dance group, which was real fun but we also had a lot of training during the week. I also played the guitar in a group. Our guitar teacher gave the group (we were five girls) the name ´The A-Team´, a name which nobody really liked that much. Once we played the song ´Somebody that I used to know´ at a concert with only one guitar, an experiment that ended in a complete chaos.

I have to admit that I am not very good at writing blogs, especially since I have never done this before.

doing sports so every time I

have free time I try to practice some.

I met my partner Fepo

in a Handball training and since then we are friends and play together in a club.  My

favourite color is Red. This ,as all my

classmates, is my 2 year of NTICx and also

my 2 year posting about this class.

                                                  About Fepo:

I'm 14 years old and my name is Felipe but all my friends call me Fepo. In the weekends I like to play golf and watch argentinian football. My favourite sport is Handball. I start playing in a club and then came Nico, there is where we met, and since then we play together at the school. Now I'm on the fourth year of highschool. My favourite color is green like my Handball T-shirt.

Stay tuned for more information.

My name is Ignacio and I am 15 years old. I really like sports like football and Athletics. On Mondays I go training in the school with some classmates. I am fan of Boca Juniors, which is a recognized club in Argentina and America. The reason i love football so much is because it makes me forget everything that is happening and I just concentrate on the game.

About Us Post

Hi! Our names are Cata & Delfi and this is a blog we created with our classmates. If you love NTICx, then you are going to feel at home here, because we are going to be posting everything we learn in this subject's class. There are sooo many interesting and awesome topics we are going to write about, so you are NEVER going to get bored! 

But this post is just going to be about us, so you get to know us a little better... Enjoy:

        

I'm a student at a german school, where we have NTICx. This year we are running a blog, in which we will post regularly about different topics. But first I'll start introducing myself.

I live with my family in Argentina, Buenos Aires. I love sports! Specially volleyball and soccer. Both of them make me very happy and help me take the stress away. My guilty pleasure is chocolate. I consider it the best creation in the world. Although I enjoy sports, I also like to read whenever I can. My favourite color is green, because it reminds me of the nature that we are surrounded by. I think that tells you a lot about myself and I hope you are interested in what our blog will be like.

I'm a sophomore at a school from Argentina and this is the 2nd year I am taking this class (NTICx). We started writing this blog, because we liked the idea of sharing everything we learn about this subject and, what better idea than a blog? 

Anyway, this is an "About Me" post, so it is not only about what this blog is going to be about, but also about the writers; what I like to do in my free time is read (I Love reading!) and watch series. Sports also play an important roll in my life: I love playing volleyball at school with my friends and dive at a diving school. 

We hope you enjoyed this little introduction 
and stay tuned to our future posts!

about us

                                     

Hi! we are Luci and Rena from Argentina and we are very excited about showing you our new blog.

Rena loves dancing, specially hip hop. She goes 4 times a week  to a dance company called “H3”. At the end of the year they prepare a show in front of more than 2000 people.

The one with the black t-shirt is Rena in the show from last year.

Luci plays hockey 3 times a week in a club called “San Isidro Club”. Every Saturday she has a very important match against another team.

Here is Luci, in a hockey match against a team called "Club Atletico San Isidro".

Luci doesn't dance very well and for Rena playing hockey is a big challenge, so we find a way to spend the time together.

Creating a blog! We create it to share with you our progress at school, and how we are doing!

So, please follow us in our blog, because here you will find amazing methods for studying and very useful tips to improve your concentration.

Hope you see our next post!
