The process. Online activity

Introduction

This is the final lesson on the topic.

Today we are talking about women scientists’ contribution. All teams present their articles to the editorial team and make a report to a class about the person of their article. At the same time all the listeners play the part of the members of the editorial team: make some notes in order to be ready for giving the evaluation of the reports, collate the articles for getting out the newsletter in its final form. Good luck!

After the presentation make a conclusion.

After the students have chosen a partner and define the roles, they start to do the task given below (choose a woman scientist, search the information).

All pairs do this task. Every pair will make a presentation at the next lesson, and at the same time they will play the role of editorial team, listening to others. All pairs have to be involved.
