Editor's Notes

  • #2 Incluimos el nombre de nuestra asignatura y el curso en la que se imparte.
  • #5 Ponemos la pregunta de la unidad en el título. Si queréis, podéis incluir movimiento y que salga primero la columna izquierda y luego la derecha cuando ya hayáis debatido. En la pregunta con qué otros temas está relacionado, debemos fomentar la conexión interdisciplinar si se puede (aprendizaje holítico)
  • #8 Incluimos los conceptos del planificador
  • #11 En tarea ponemos en nombre completo de la misma. Intentaremos ser un poco específicos. Por ejemplo, en vez de Examen Unidad 1 pondremos el tema del que se examinan. En vez de Experimento de Laboratorio diremos en qué consiste. En objetivos decimos qué objetivos de nuestra asignatura se trabajan en esa tarea. Cada asignatura tiene un número de criterios. Podéis eliminarlos de la tabla o simplemente poner una línea en los que no se aplican en vuestra asignatura.
  • #12 Elegimos dos o tres atributos concretos, los más pertinentes para esta unidad. Hay que trabajarlos todos a lo largo del curso.
