Week 2. Reflections

Rules Creation, Terms Used In Technology


Task:
1. Create a rules sheet.
2. Find the meanings of computer based terms used in technology.

Steps:
1. Form groups.
2. Create a rules table.
3. Look up the meaning of different terms.
4. Present the information to the class as a group.

Challenges faced while completing the task:
1. Coming up with simple rules and making them clear.
2. Finding clear and simple definitions for the terms used.
3. Coming up with a creative way to do a group presentation.

Solutions used to overcome:
1. As a group, we discussed what are some of the things expected in an IT lab.
2. Form simple and positive rules that would be clear for the students to understand and follow.
3. Googled various sites then used the information gathered to form simple definitions.
4. Created a skit, which was used to present the information to the class.

I learned that the best way to create rules is to keep them simple and positive, avoid using words like don't and no. Also, I learned the meaning of some commonly used terms in technology and using the internet requires a lot of discipline and courtesies, which a lot of people don't exhibit.
