YO SOLÍA GOBERNAR EL MUNDO
LOS MARES SE ALZABAN CUANDO YO LO ORDENABA
AHORA EN LA MAÑANA YO BARRO SOLO
BARRO LAS CALLES QUE SOLÍA POSEER

YO SOLÍA TIRAR EL DADO
SENTIR EL MIEDO EN LOS OJOS DE MI ENEMIGO
ESCUCHABA COMO LA GENTE CANTABA:
"AHORA EL VIEJO REY ESTÁ MUERTO, ¡LARGA VIDA AL REY!"

UN MINUTO YO TENÍA LA LLAVE
AL SIGUIENTE LAS PAREDES SE CERRABAN EN MÍ
Y DESCUBRÍ QUE MIS CASTILLOS ESTABAN CONSTRUIDOS
SOBRE PILARES DE SAL Y PILARES DE ARENA

ESCUCHO LAS CAMPANAS DE JERUSALEN SONANDO
LOS COROS DEL CALVARIO ROMANO ESTÁN CANTANDO
SON MI ESPEJO, MI ESPADA Y MI ESCUDO
MIS MISIONEROS EN UN CAMPO EXTRANJERO
POR ALGUNA RAZON QUE NO PUEDO EXPLICAR
UNA VEZ QUE SABES QUE NUNCA HUBO UNA PALABRA HONESTA
ASÍ ERA CUANDO YO GOBERNABA EL MUNDO

FUE EL VIENTO LOCO Y SALVAJE
QUE TIRÓ LAS PUERTAS PARA DEJARME ENTRAR
Letras4U.com » letras traducidas al españolVENTANAS ROTAS Y EL SONIDO DE TAMBORES
LA GENTE NO PODÍA CREER EN LO QUE ME CONVERTÍ

LOS REVOLUCIONARIOS ESPERAN
MI CABEZA EN CHAROLA DE PLATA
SOLO UNA MARIONETA EN UNA CUERDA SOLITARIA
OH ¿QUIEN PODRÍA QUERER SER REY?

ESCUCHO LAS CAMPANAS DE JERUSALEN SONANDO
LOS COROS DEL CALVARIO ROMANO ESTÁN CANTANDO
SON MI ESPEJO, MI ESPADA Y MI ESCUDO
MIS MISIONEROS EN UN CAMPO EXTRANJERO
POR ALGUNA RAZON QUE NO PUEDO EXPLICAR
YO SE QUE SAN PEDRO DIRÁ MI NOMBRE
NUNCA HUBO UNA PALABRA HONESTA
PERO ASÍ ERA CUANDO YO GOBERNABA EL MUNDO

ESCUCHO LAS CAMPANAS DE JERUSALEN SONANDO
LOS COROS DEL CALVARIO ROMANO ESTÁN CANTANDO
SON MI ESPEJO, MI ESPADA Y MI ESCUDO

YO SE QUE SAN PEDRO DIRÁ MI NOMBRE
NUNCA HUBO UNA PALABRA HONESTA
PERO ASÍ ERA CUANDO YO GOBERNABA EL MUNDO

!! VIVA LA VIDA !!

I USED TO RULE THE WORLD
SEAS WOULD RISE WHEN I GAVE THE WORD
NOW IN THE MORNING I SWEEP ALONE
SWEEP THE STREETS I USED TO OWN

I USED TO ROLL THE DICE
FEEL THE FEAR IN MY ENEMYS EYES
LISTEN AS THE CROWD WOULD SING:
"NOW THE OLD KING IS DEAD! LONG LIVE THE KING!"

ONE MINUTE I HELD THE KEY
NEXT THE WALLS WERE CLOSED ON ME
AND I DISCOVERED THAT MY CASTLES STAND
UPON PILLARS OF SALT AND PILLARS OF SAND

I HEAR JERUSALEM BELLS A RINGING
ROMAN CAVALRY CHOIRS ARE SINGING
BE MY MIRROR MY SWORD AND SHIELD
MY MISSIONARIES IN A FOREIGN FIELD
FOR SOME REASON I CANT EXPLAIN
ONCE YOU GO THERE WAS NEVER, NEVER AN HONEST WORD
THAT WAS WHEN I RULED THE WORLD
(OHHH)

IT WAS THE WICKED AND WILD WIND
BLEW DOWN THE DOORS TO LET ME IN
SHATTERED WINDOWS AND THE SOUND OF DRUMS
PEOPLE COULDNT BELIEVE WHAT ID BECOME

REVOLUTIONARIES WAIT
FOR MY HEAD ON A SILVER PLATE
JUST A PUPPET ON A LONELY STRING
OH WHO WOULD EVER WANT TO BE KING?

I HEAR JERUSALEM BELLS A RINGING
ROMAN CAVALRY CHOIRS ARE SINGING
BE MY MIRROR MY SWORD AND SHIELD
MY MISSIONARIES IN A FOREIGN FIELD
FOR SOME REASON I CANT EXPLAIN
I KNOW SAINT PETER WILL CALL MY NAME
NEVER AN HONEST WORD
BUT THAT WAS WHEN I RULED THE WORLD
(OHHHHH OHHH OHHH)

I HEAR JERUSALEM BELLS A RINGING
ROMAN CAVALRY CHOIRS ARE SINGING
BE MY MIRROR MY SWORD AND SHIELD
MY MISSIONARIES IN A FOREIGN FIELD
FOR SOME REASON I CANT EXPLAIN
I KNOW SAINT PETER WILL CALL MY NAME
NEVER AN HONEST WORD
BUT THAT WAS WHEN I RULED THE WORLD
OOOOOH OOOOOH OOOOOH

WITH OR WITHOUT YOU __ U2

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side.
I wait for you.
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait. without you

With or without you
With or without you.

Through the storm, we reach the shore
You gave it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you.

With or without you
With or without you.
I can't live with or without you.

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give, and you give
And you give yourself away.

My hands are tied, my body bruised
She got me with nothing to win
And nothing else to lose.

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give, and you give
And you give yourself away.

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you.

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
With or without you.

MOODLE: ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES.

ADVANTAGES:

* Low cost of ownership.
* High level of security.
* Review and constant maintenance.
* Greater flexibility
* Ability for customized to your needs.
* Source code available
* Technical support
* Constant updates and plugins
Variety of skills and herremientas
* Developed in multiple languages

DISADVANTAGES:

Some of the problems of moodle are:

* Difficult to integrate with human resource systems.
* Lack of integration with student management systems.
* Difficulty carrying out a distributed management model with multiple schools and departments.
* Inefficient use of space in the user interface.


Here are my thoughts:

Moodle is a manager that creates online courses which would be a virtual classroom. Use of this deck will change if used in support of classroom teaching, which is the area in which I move. In this case, we can carry out educational activities in the classroom that would otherwise be difficult to achieve.

 

This is one of the advantages of Moodle: can present the material in units (subjects, moodleliana terminology) ordered and ready for consultation with students. Allows you to include questionnaires, HotPotatoes, keeping a journal of work, taking the pulse on a topic in a forum or in a query, aarchivos up, edit documents collaboratively ... and ALL in the same environment.
Now it is true that moodle classrooms are an island closed, private, as are our classrooms. Some allow visitors access and, sometimes, we accept the presence of a partner. But it is the less.
As I will not dwell, I will say that the biggest advantage is that Moodle is recording everything the students do, namely, the teacher knows how many times the student has agreed to a source, what is the result of their participation in a query , which the questionnaires ... and not only know the teacher, but also the student, as this can be seen, many times as desired, the state of their qualifications. In addition to the classroom (and therefore the teacher and peers) is available for students anytime and from any computer.
For example, the presentation of Internet resources in a systematic way.
Valga beforehand that moodle blog and are not comparable, as are tools designed for very different uses. Moodle has been designed from an educational perspective, the blogs, no. Another thing is that these are used for educational purposes.The blog has a public dimension indisputable (moodle not), but the same settings as places limits on what actions.

The theme given for a detailed discussion of the pedagogical implications of the two tools. Worth a warning that these notes are just a point.
Are nonetheless compatible tools. In the language area of ​​my department, we use the blog as a common space for all students (and high school), as a showcase to share news but, above all texts. Thus, moodle is defined as a unique environment of each group, while the blog is a shared space for students of different levels and ages.
This is our proposal, but surely there are more.
