Gol/Propósito: Crear una aplicación (App) que proporcione el medio ideal para la comunicación oportuna entre los padres de familia y la entidad educativa.to GlobalGlobalización y sostenibilidadLos estudiantes explorarán la interconexión de los sistemas y comunidades creados por los seres humanos; las relaciones entre procesos locales y globales; como las experiencias locales median las globales; reflexionarán sobre las tensiones y las oportunidades que provee la interconexión del mundo; el impacto de la toma de decisiones sobre la humanidad y el medio ambiente.lobalJustificaciónLa aplicación aprovechará la falta de medios a nivel local (escolar)para generar un medio ideal para incrementar la comunicación entre padres y la entidad educativa, haciendo uso de las tecnologías actuales. La creación de esta App responde a la oportunidad de interconexión en el mundo, pues estas aplicaciones han facilitado la comunicación entre las personas a todo nivel desde conseguir un taxi, conocer las rutas del bus, hasta jugar múltiples juegos entre personas. Aquí se está atendiendo una necesidad para mantener a la familia en una comunicación más cercana con el colegio, aprovechando las posiblidades de interconexiones que el mundo global nos ofrece.

Research /Information literacy/ Find information in different media:

I researched about Arduino micro controllers and found a variety of websites The most useful are listed above. I also researched videos with tutorials about Arduino and I have enrolled in a seminar which lasts for 3 weeks where I will be learning about Arduino.Another example:

Self-management/Affective skills/ Practise dealing with disappointment and unmet expectations:

" In the interview I made to the Architect I could not use some materials I had planned because they are not available in the city. This means that I need to go back and research new materials that are available locally. Although I feel I have wasted my time, it has been a learning experience because I really should have paid attention to this before.
