| Students: |
Singly or in groups |
| Rationale: |

have prepared. They also evaluate their own and the other groups'
performances ("How

Needs" - Reflection
:
| Materials: |
Student
book (1) Student
book (2) (click here to see the student
page) |
| Students: |
Groups or singly |
| Rationale: |
Data collection;
opinion transfer; reflection on learning
needs |
| Method: |
The reflective questionnaires which
appear at the end of each project are useful for raising awareness
of language learning, and for starting the mechanism of reflection
on learning. It can be an idea to use for regular reflection,
them even if they are not part of the project. Students can enter
their own opinions on the questionnaire, but there will be more
interaction (and use of the
language) if they ask other students, including
those in other classes. Having asked a number of students, they
can then pool their answers to produce a report about their findings. |
| Notes: |
If there is no time for this activity,
it can be used at another time when a questionnaire activity might
be useful. |

"Evaluation
preparation" - Homework:
| Materials: |
Student
book (click here to see the student
page) |
| Students: |
Groups or singly |
| Rationale: |
Students are given information
about the Evaluation session and have time to prepare for it |
| Method: |
If the teacher
and the students would like to have an evaluation session at any
time (e.g. at the end of a project),
there are many evaluative sheets in the student's book
and the teacher's book. Part
3 of the student's book ("Self-assessment")
offers various ways for students to check their progress, and
it is suggested that they be encouraged to use these regularly:
"How is my learning?"
(pp. 196-97),
"How was the project?"(pp.
198-99), "My
project" (p. 200),
"My attendance sheet"
(p. 215). See the
following page for a suggested format for an evaluation session
that might come after a project . |
| Notes: |
The Evaluation Session is not so
much a test as a chance for students to talk about their learning
needs, goals and achievements. It is a time in which they can
evaluating the course, the Projects, their learning and their
future needs. In essence this is a self-assessment
session, designed to motivate students to further study. It is
also possible for them to bring up things that they want to talk
to the teacher about. The teacher can therefore also use this
as a diagnosing and counseling session. |
