Final reflections

We are ready to leave the inhabitants of Kwikston and it is time for reflections.
Please reflect on:

General
- Wiki as a tool
- Storyline as a method
- Instructions given regarding these

Our storyline
- Topic
- Tasks
- Instructions
- Workload
- Time allowed in class
- Tasks between classes
- Cooperation within groups
- Is this form of group work effective?
- Were you able to give each other feedback?
- Did you edit and re-edit? A lot?
- Your own texts?
- Others' texts?

Finally
- Did you become engaged in the storyline?
- Are you taking away new knowledge / skills that you will be able to use in your own teaching?

Storyline

We have had two lessons about storyline. In these lessons we told about what is it and we have invented a new town. With this town, we have done several activities and each of us has a character and a workplace.

I think it's a new and fun way to teach our students, making use of new techonologies. Also, it's a good idea because students have to develop their imagination.

In the first Storyline session we learnt what storyline is, what it focusses on and the elements of storyline. We invented Kwistead, with the workplaces and the characters who work in.
In the second session, we described our character and our workplace to the rest of the group. We have knewn all the inhabitants and the workplaces in the town.
I think this two session have been very useful for us. We have learnt a lot of new things. For example I had never worked before with storyline and now I think I could use in a class.

I am really enjoying Wiki Storyline so far. The tasks are interesting and I think the students would like doing them too as they are not the usual boring textbook assignments.

Please reflect on your experiences using the wiki.

I'm very excited about this storyline project and I'm looking forward to getting to know the different characters. Hopefully, the others will turn out to be more likeable than my own grumpy old geezer, Bruce Melbourne.

I am so glad to be a student again, and I am looking forward to learn more English. I can see that my computer skills could be better... Wiki was new for me, and I definitely need to practise more..
