Plenary Activity | Plenary Activity | ||
# | # Ensure that the participants are in five different groups. | ||
# | # Assign each group to one particular lens to discuss what are the kind of things they may look out in the classrooms using that one particular lens. This should take at least 10 minutes. | ||
# | # One member from each group will share with everyone in a plenary format. (ie. each person to take turn to share what they have discussed in the group) | ||
# | # The rest of the participants can ask questions for clarification or raise comments on the overlaps and links across the 5 LfL principles. This should take another 15 minutes. | ||
# | # Remind the participants that this is a purely exploratory exercise, with no incorrect answers. | ||

# | # Ensure that the participants are in at least two groups of 5 participants each. | ||
# | # Assign each member in each group to one particular lens to think about what are the kind of things that he/she may look out in the classrooms using that one particular lens. This should take at least 5 minutes. | ||
# | # The members who are assigned to the same lens from the different groups will meet together as a temporary ‘expert’ group to exchange ideas. This should take another 5 minutes or so. | ||
# | # The members return back to their original group and share their findings to the rest of the members. Each person will have about 2 minutes to share their findings. | ||
# | # Remind the participants that this is a purely exploratory exercise, with no incorrect answers. | ||
Use the background reading to explain the terms. There is another educator note below this background reading, that gives further details for each point in turn. Make sure that you have spent time reading and thinking about this before the session as the participants may need your prompting to help them ‘see’ through each of the lens. | Use the background reading to explain the terms.
