Cascading New Knowledge
Overview
One of the activities is to prepare cards written on them a piece of information about a country such as:
1- students are divided into groups of 4.
2 - One of the group takes a card written on it a piece of cultural information about a country.
3- The group decide together rather this information is correct or wrong within a certain time.
4- Teacher or somebody from another group( if possible) corrects the mistakes.
5- Groups take turns in taking cards.
6- The more the activity goes the more challenging the information is.
The activity aims to teach students about other cultures as knowledge is provided through competing, not to mention that students do learn more from each other "discussions". I think this activity is quite entertaining and informative for both teachers and students.
On the other hand, teachers have to prepare well before applying such activity as the teacher can add extra information at any stage.
This activity can cover the three types of materials regarding the type of the given information.
