Re: [Fle3-users] New Learning Diary thiking type -set

[Hector Botero]

Hello Teemu:
I am very glad of receiving the :'Learning Diary  thinking type-set" , as I
said you formerly this could be a good aproach  in Latinamerica  to FLE for
beginners.
Do you want that  we here in KIMERA make the translation to Spanish?
If so please confirm in order to begin the work.

Regards

Hector Botero

PS  Regarding the pending discussion about "bussiness ideas"  just now they
are happening some events that could give some orientations,  I am thinking
about that I will be sending some comments soon.

> * Starting point
> This is the note which starts an entry to the learning diaries and

> * I have learned
> With this note type you can present what you feel that you have learned
> - understood in a new way. Beaware of your learning, that which takes
> place everywhere and all the time. All the learning experiences you
> write here do not necessarly have to do with the topic of the course.
>
> * Raised-up question
> With the question note you can point out something you would like to
> know more about. The question can be related to lectures, group works,
> discussions etc. Feel free to ask questions. Remeber that in order to

>
> * Suggestion of an answer
> With this note type you may provide your sugestion of an answer to some
> question note. It can be just your own proposal or something you have
> heard, read or experienced somewhere.

> if you want to translate the set to other languages, please use the
