SOFA SESSIONS REVIEW Ideal School ( Marta Alonso)

Comparing this presentation with the beginning as a group they have improved in collaboration between all the members of the group and of course the implication. Everybody went to the meetings and accomplish their own role while they did their common work as well. They created Apollo School and give each group a paper of information as an advertisement of their school. It was useful also to follow more easily their presentation because it had written the different points that were shown in the video and also some extra information about their school. They talk about their philosophy of education including learning  communities, multiple intelligences, Welcome Programs, Citizenship, Creativity, Ethical and moral and constructivist methodologies. The video was an original idea where each component of the group was a person working in the school teacher, psychologist, the principal…  It creates an environment of veracity and also at the time of talking all the ideas and projects were perfectly explained although sometimes some monologues were a bit long and finally they finished being boring. It would be necessary something more dynamic and active such as the interview of the Welcome program’s student. The video was recorded in a real school so it gives seem like a really video advertisement for their school. There were some contradictions for example in the part of family participation but they knew how to solve it and explained it again when they were asked. There are components of the group that talk more than others, but finally all of them have participated answering questions.
