From all other posts you all may have pretty good idea about the conference. I will mainly focus on the project which we presented in the conference.
We named our project weLearn. Students want project based learning but as of yet we don’t have a collaborative system for sharing and working on our ideas. We are developing the system, so that students can have a formal platform to share the project based learning experience. Students will develop more creative ideas to enhance their learning. In this platform everyone will answer the question “How do you learn?”. After the group presentation we had to face the maximum number of questions as many teachers were excited about this idea. Even one of the teachers judge from Australia mention the need of sharing the learning experience. Even two twins have different way of learning experience. So sharing this experience will help the global community to create wonderful collection of learning ways. Whatever the curriculum is, our main goal is to learn. And the best way of finding suitable learning way is to share our learning ideas.
Our group was the most diversified group. Team members are Anwar (Me from Bangladesh), Marcus(from New Zealand), Sagar(from India/Singapore), Kartini(from Singapore), Matthew (from Malaysia). I should mention that all the team members are very good team player and contributed to generate such a beautiful idea in short span of time. Taking all team members opinion I am working as the project manager of the group. Good news is Microsoft is going to fund the project and we are going to finish this project within next six months. As we are in the final stage of planning we need students worldwide as partners of the project. Please join the project in TIG to share your expectation from a platform where you can share your project based learning experience.
