Flipteaching En la droguería | Cuentos.eu El pobre Bernardo, carpintero de aldea, a fuerza de trabajo, esmero, noble ambición, había ido afinando, afinando la labor; y D. Benito el droguero, ricacho de la capital, a quien Bernardo conocía por haber trabajado para él en una casa de campo, le ofreció nada menos que emplearle, con algo más de jornal, poco, en la ciudad, bajo la dirección de un maestro, en las delicadezas de la estantería y artesonado de la droguería nueva que D. Benito iba a abrir en la Plaza Mayor, con asombro de todo el pueblo y ganancia segura para él, que estaba convencido de que iría siempre viento en popa. Bernardo, en la aldea, aun con tanto afán, ganaba apenas lo indispensable para que no se muriesen de hambre los cinco hijos que le había dejado su Petra, y aquella queridísima y muy anciana madre suya, siempre enferma, que necesitaba tantas cosas y que le consumía la mitad del jornal misérrimo. Tenía razón. Para echar más leña al fuego, vino la amistad con el droguero D. -¡Oh, D. D. D. Cuando se marchó D.

Introducció de noves metodologies a l'assignatura de Cultura Audiovisual amb el suport de les TIC by Lluís Ballarín Romero on Prezi Student e-Portfolios | The Big English Blog Avec certaines classes ou certains groupes, nous allons expérimenter cette année avec la création d’un STUDENT e-PORTFOLIO à l’aide de WIKISPACES. Chaque élève devra gérer son propre espace de travail en ligne, en incluant travaux écrits et oraux. On peut télécharger les travaux sous forme de documents en traitement de texte, des images, des fichiers sons enregistrés et des vidéos filmées. L’élève devra donner un accès à Mme Léger afin de lui permettre de suivre l’évolution du travail personnel de l’élève tout au long de l’année. Le travail en ligne fera partie d’une évaluation particulière. A tout moment, il sera possible à l’élève de demander le regard du professeur à tout moment – il suffit de faire la demande par mail à l’adresse de la classe. Il est tout à fait possible pour l’élève de faire du travail au delà de ce qui est demandé en classe – c’est un peu l’avantage de ce type de travail. Pour les L LVA, le premier travail à mettre dans le portfolio sera la présentation filmée.
