The Beginning of Task 3!!

Now the time has come for us to start working on Task 3 which is a group assignment!!!! In our tutorials we split up in groups of four. In my group was Elise Smith, Sarah Kee and Ashlee Kujawski. Val introduced Task three to our class and immediately we started talking about what we were going to do for this assignment. We only have a few short weeks left of the semester so we needed to get it started as soon as possible as it being a group assignment they normally take a lot longer to complete compared to other assignments. Val talked to us about the Google docs brainstorming document so our group decided to use that and write all our ideas and notes on this document so our whole group can see!! I thought this idea was great!
We talked more in class about what area in the curriculum we were going to base our wiki on and we decided we wanted to cover History with our topic being Ancient Egypt we looked on the Australian Curriculum website and found that Ancient Egypt works in with the Year 7 age group. Now that we know what we want our authentic learning experience to be based on we have to as a group, design our learning experience, make our wiki, make a presentation to show the processes we go through as a group and add resources to our wiki that will be useful for both teachers and students.

 At the moment I am really worried about how we are going to organise all this so that it works effectively, I hope we can communicate and collaborate well or this task may be a disaster.
