Application of EDPUZZLE in class

As I explained in my last post, I could not manage to put into practice any task in my class because of the lack of new technologies, this is the reason why I am going to suggest an activity employing EDPUZZLE:

- REASON TO CHOOSE THE VIDEO
I have selected the video where Greta Thumberg, the teenager who defends the protection of the World, makes a speech:

The reason to choose this topic is to highlight the importance of preserving the world and to create environmental awareness on the part of the students.

- LEARNING OBJECTIVES

- To develop listening skill
- To develop awareness about the climate change and its real consequences
- To develop students´creativity
- To develop students´knowledge about new technologies
- To foster cooperation between students.

- ACTIVITIES

- Students are shown how to use the application EDPUZZLE before hand.
- In class , students brainstorm the thematic field of Environment. The teacher also provides a list with extra words.
- This activity will be carried out by only a group of students.(in every unit the same task will be directed by only one group ). The teacher asks them to watch the video at home. As it is subtitled, students will find easy its understanding.
- They are asked to include some specific information about environment during Greta´s speech. To do this , they must look for information on the Internet, reinforcing their reading skill (flipped learning)
- This group must also prepare a questionnaire about the video , which will be answered by their classmates once they watch the video.
- After watching the video and doing the questionaire, students will discuss the ways to avoid climate change from home.

IMPROVEMENT
Computers and wi-fi connection should be compulsory in all the Educational Institutions from Andalucia
