Team Collaboration

This project gave us the opportunity to learn new things and to try and unite the ones that wanted to know more about other places We realized that if we, locals, knew so little about this beautiful land, the people from abroad never heard about it, so this land really deserves to be promoted on a larger scale, and we decided to do something about. We go in a trip where one of us acted like a local tourist guide and another member of a team made a film.We got a lot of pictures .Back to school, we have a meeting to decide what pictures we choose to edit and upload on thinkquest portal. It was fun to remember about the trip, about the moment when we try to make the film. As a team we decide also how to edit the pictures and the main idea of the text, and also that Raluca will find the appropriate word to express our feelings about those place.It was a hard work to chose an decide but we succeeded. We are still a team. We realize how many things we don’t know: how to edit pictures, how to attach a frame on it, how to make a gif file.We also learn to make a sound file, to cut and edit a short movie. It was very fun, but it was also difficult. Each member of a team has, at a moment, a given role: researcher, text editor, team leader, movie and pictures editor, survey designer and date collector.

We use some thinkquest tools such as:post a message and send a message to members in order to communicate with the team members from the other city and school. Even we communicate only on web we have done a very great job, we understand each other, we share ideas, establish how we will work together, what and how will do the things.

Working as a team the students develop 21th century skill such as:self-direction, critical thinking, technology, communication and, of course, teamwork.
