Title | Access to Education |
Body | Stephanie Knight is the Language Technology Specialist at CASLS. The purpose of this activity is to engage intermediate mid and intermediate high learners in critical thinking, discussion, and writing regarding access to education around the world. In completing this activity, learners will be expected to use descriptive language to discuss their ideas. Objectives: Learners will be able to:
Modes: Interpretive Listening, Interpersonal Communication, Presentational Writing Resources: Statement Handout, Video regarding access to education in international contexts, Letter Handout Procedure:
This activity can easily be adjusted to other proficiency levels. For novice learners, teachers may find it beneficial to either use the first language during some of the classroom discussion or to provide the learners with simplified statements from the Statement Handout. This handout can be distributed before the classroom discussion takes place so that learners may write down notes to support their discussion. In advanced classes, learners should be required to justify their claims with as much supporting detail as possible and should incorporate a greater linguistic variety than that which is expected of intermediate learners. |
