Paternoster The experiment is an attempt to give students the four basic factors of group work to bring closer. And I have also searched for a way to the dreaded by every eCoach or eModerator, Social inertia overturn a bit. This exercise is about, with all participants in the exercise group in the process of problem solving include so the common goal to solve the task successfully until recently unknown.
The Paternoster experiment - the task
Initially, each exercise participant's e-mail address on a Post-it write. Over the next six days ago, I sent a portion of a task to a randomly selected e-mail address. be attached to the bottom of the seventh day, the solution of the problem on a piece of paper in the attic by the Paternoster ride. If this criterion is met, the participants will receive a reward in the form of a cafeteria or a canteen meal dessert. In the event of failure, each participant owes me a processing an online job.
The planning of the sequence
The planning of operations was the central element of the first practice session. The students should present their ideas to me and I just have this then transferred to the Facebook group. Both exercise groups were pragmatic solutions to the problem, and I had the impression that the second group defined a greater personal responsibility.
The sequence analysis
Both groups were able to solve the task. The Difficulty of integrating the e-mails from the stragglers, I have over-estimated, since all messages were passed on the last day the person responsible. The solution to the issues could be solved quickly with the help of google. To be particularly entertaining was the fitting of the solution described in Paternoster - less entertaining, my attempts to slip in a round to get back ;-)
The educational background
With this exercise, I wanted make a playful way on the basic elements of planning processes attention: periods / deadlines, clarify responsibilities, Compliance with existing resources and structuring of the outlet. In order to consolidate the processing, I can discuss these items and share case-specific in order to one another. An assessment of their own approach and the opportunity to make amendments, was being considered - but was not required because of the unique approach.
entertaining, but too easy!
I had the impression that the students had fun during the processing of the task. Unfortunately, the task was not difficult enough structurally. So I'm going with a new implementation of the variable time pressure and reward concept Ressurcen to work a bit longer need. Particularly, it has surprised me is that the students of the first exercise a little ashamed to have to accept the reward. She stood for the solution and the reward is not in the right proportion. Very interesting!
final assessment
+
- good participation rate
- high entertainment value
- promising approach to the basic elements to convey planning processes
-
- too simple, problem for the evaluation and derived conclusions
- reward concept to be revised
- be for real intention: an example of theory-practice deficit in the form of inappropriate
