= An ICT activity: Picture sequencing =
{{todo|this needs revising. We could perhaps just reflect on the picture sequencing activity from an afl perspective. the instructions should have been come up earler.}}

==Introduction to activity ==

The purpose of this activity is twofold:
# First, for you to remind yourself about an application that you have used previously.
# Second, to try out AfL during an ICT-supported activity. 

So while you do the activity, imagine that you want to introduce it in the class. Think about the following:
* Identify what are the possible lesson objectives and success criteria?
* What kind of formative feedback would you likely be giving your students during the class?
* Do you think the issues typically arising with lesson pacing will be the same or different in a lesson using ICT? Why?
Bear these questions in mind, as you do the following activity!

{{ednote|text=
During this activity, ask participants to use traffic lights to indicate their progress  of completion of the activities. The traffic light cards can just be placed in front of each participant, with the relevant color visible on top. Explain to the participants that the red light should be shown if they need immediate and urgent help from the facilitator. Use the orange light if they are unsure about some issues with the activities which they can consult their partner teachers about. Use the green light to indicate that everything is going smoothly for them so far. They are encouraged to use the traffic lights at all times while they are engaging with the activities while you go around assisting them.   There is no need for the participants to “vote” by all using the traffic lights simultaneously at specific times.

A similar activity has been used in Unit 2, but here the activity is presented in the context of AfL.

{{: OER4Schools/Monarch butterfly sequencing activity }}

{{activity|Discuss in your pair.}} How did you find the ICT activity on using slides to show the life cycle of a butterfly? What are the advantages and disadvantages of making use of ICT for such an activity? Can this activity be completed without using ICT?

== Discussion of ICT activity ==


{{activity|wcd|: Review of the ICT activity.|10}} As a group, discuss how this exploration went. Discuss the questions posed above!

{{ednote|text=
If there is time, the facilitator may like to record what the teachers have suggested in a table format on the blackboard:
