Video from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpY2D5lDbew
I used this video as a lesson to familiarize my two-year-programme students with panel discussion. It was my second class (2nd hour) with the students after the ice-breaking session in the first class.
Lesson Plan
1. Teacher plays the video in the class for students to watch
2. Teacher asks the students to jot down important points and supporting details.
*the video is also sent to Google Classroom for students to re-watch (if needed).
4. Teacher informs the students to put their main and supporting points in a mind-map to be presented in the next class.
The outcome:
These students had learnt mind-map since secondary school. Thus, it is assumed that using mind-map to produce effective notes is not rocket science for them. During the presentation day, students displayed their mind-maps in front of the class and explained their points which obtained from watching the video entitled 'The Chindian Diaries" Grammar and vocabulary errors were corrected on the spot. Anyway, students enjoyed the presentation in class.
Problems identified: Students had difficulties to distinguish between main and supporting points based on what they presented on paper. Some students displayed irrelevant points such as "religions", "easy to learn", etc. and there three groups of students who even put "introduction" and "conclusion" as their main points but without supporting points in the mind-maps.
Planning treatments for he students to be better listener and able to determine main and supporting points.
Activity 1: (2 hours)
Play short tracks/excerpts
Ask the students to list four keywords from the listening tracks
Activity 2: ( 2 hours)
Play short videos
Instruct the students to identify the main points and supporting points
Activity 3: (2 hours)
Play a video about 10-15 minutes
Ask the students to fill in the blanks of a (guided) mind-map which has main and supporting points
Activity 4: (2 hours)
Play a video about 10-15 minutes
Ask the students to mind-map the main and supporting points
As for now, I am searching for more simple short videos and short tracks (audio) which can be used in treatment.
