Students of Senior School had the experience of participating in debates. The topic to dicuss was very interesteing for students and for teachers too. On the picture you can see students of Eight Milton (Year 8) doing the activity.
The topic was: "IS LEARNING ONLINE A GOOD ALTERNATIVE TO HAVE A GOOD EDUCATION AND TO OBTAIN CERTIFICATES?"
In this task students had to organise in 3 groups. One group will be the affirmative team, the other one will be the negative team and we will also have a jury (3 Students) and the Chairperson (Teacher).
The affirmative and negative team had to give 5 strong reasons to back up their opinions regarding the topic given. This was a very interesting task to work with my students. They developed speaking and thinking skills.
They worked as a team, they organised and enjoyed the activity. I strongly recommend to have this activities with your class. =D
