Content Curation Tools

Hi everybody,

Today I am going to write about Content curation. Do you know what is this?
First of all think for a while...when you are looking on the web about some topic, how many time do you usually spend on it? In my case I have spent a lot of time, but now I know how to do it faster. I have discovered: Content Curation. Nowadays there are a lot of resources that you can find on internet and sometimes you spent many time clicking and clicking. For that reason I started to use Content Curation. First of all you can organize all your resources and also linked to other resources that are very useful.
There are different tools to start curating content:

I have worked with Pinterest because for me is intuitive and easy. Also there you will find resources about all topics. I am going to explain a little more about Pinterest.
First of all Pinterest is a web page that serves as a virtual board, you can discover, organize and share images and videos that are interesting for you. Each board corresponds with a specific topic, there you can paste images. All is well organized, that is the reason why you will work faster when you will look for a topic. In my Pinterest account I have different boards that I have created: Food, Crafts; Music, Natural Science, Social Science, Work out, English Grammar, etc. All images (or videos) are called Pin. You can add pins easily. Here is my Pinterest if you want to have a look:

Here you have one of my board (Natural Science) and my profile below the board. 


                                                             


I have to say that I wasn´t using correctly Pinterest when I started. Now I know how to use and I have all more organized. I would like to encourage you to prove it.

see you :)

Do you now exactly what a mindmap is? Well, is a diagram use to represent words, ideas, drawings or other concepts. It is also a good method that help to memorize information.

EDUCATIONAL INFOGRAPHICS

Hi mates! Today I would like to show you what an infographic is. As I said in my last post, nowadays we have lots of new tools. Our students must be able to develop many competences and for them is very important to learn strategies to organize and analyze their knowledges. Infographic is a tool to create pictures with your computer. How we can do it? It is so easy, you have many webs where you can do it. It is very interesting because our pupils can create a picture with the most important information of one unit, topic or project. In that case I used the infographic with my first graders. I have created a poster with the most important information that we learnt in the first unit of science. I think that is very striking and attractive for them. Also the can learn how to abstract the most important information of a text. Here I would like to give you tips to create a good one.
