I guess making this poster was a completely new experience for all of us. A funny one, I’d say – now that everything is up, but not when we were writing it. As we didn’t have research results, as all of the ones we saw had, we didn’t know what to do, how much to write and specially how to write. Thanks God Carla was able to help us in the weekend (sorry, Carla) or we would miss the ground. I was so worried about the length of the text and then a good part of it was discarded and that huge panel still looked so full, if it had all the text we had written, it would need triple size! Well, at least we notice we are able to write an article when we need ;)
Another different experience was to take a distance from the journal, I mean, we are doing the journal everyday and we can notice its benefits in our lives but to talk about it more technically was a little strange, because we didn’t write the same way we write here, we wouldn’t be talking about our learning, but about writing about our learning. In fact the way we saw the journal was the same, but we wouldn’t write to journal readers (ourselves, in case) but to the poster readers.
It’s a pity that it was kind of hidden and we couldn’t talk to much people, I was so excited with our first presentation in an event… :(

Congratulations!! The poster´s beautiful and you all did a great job! We´ll talk about it in class - the issues you´ve pointed out regarding the writing focus and readership are extremely relevant and thought-provoking. I´m proud of you! And there´s SINALE now, you´ll have a chance to talk more about your journal project.
See you,
Carla
