Task done in the TICs Seminar

1. Learning through images
Objectives:
We will use images to make students aware of the importance of practising sports and the fact
that sports are different from one another.
We project the activity for children aged nine to eleven (9-11) for an elementary level.
Topic: Different kinds of unconventional sports
Tool: www.picadilo.com
Task: Make students produce different collages of one unpopular sport, then share their
productions with classmates and explain why they consider that sport not common but
entertaining.
Evaluation: we found this site attractive and catching for the above mentioned age. Besides, it
is easy to use and to combine varied pictures. Users can share their productions through the
page itself or download the pictures from it.
Teachers: Natasha Barrau, Gianna Di Dino, Alexandra Fuentes, Nicolás Miró & Gisela Nacini.

2. Tas
kStudents are going to
present photographs of
different unconventional
sports that are not
considered to be popular in
our culture. Moreover, they
are going to be participating
in a competition which will
determine the most original
collage and the success in
using this tool. The judges
will be the students voting
according to their creativity
and assessment of the use
of the tool.
