Get students to weigh the different factors, either on post-it or as an online post (using the timeline format on Padlet). Draw a line with two ends; one on agree, the other on disagree. Then get students to decide where their post lies along the spectrum. Gets students to verbalise out why one post is stronger than the other.

Students enjoy it!

This is based on ZL's game idea of Housing Shortage. I modified it by making it a drawing exercise so that students have to think a little bit more as to why they decide to include where the facilities/ amenities should be placed at. Check out the pseudo- Boyd's town model. ]]> 2020-06-01 09:51:07 UTC https://padlet.com/zeanfan/sucneiw0ww5o/wish/604446770 D.I https://padlet.com/zeanfan/sucneiw0ww5o/wish/604468035 Sec 1 Water Shortage Impacts
Tried out differentiating modes of assessment for different groups of students. One class had role-play and the other had poster-making. Role-play is good to get students to articulate what they have learnt in a creative manner. Can nip misconceptions in the bud too. Poster-making for those who may like to express themselves visually.

Video is too large for Padlet. So will do with a still image.]]> 2020-06-01 10:06:28 UTC https://padlet.com/zeanfan/sucneiw0ww5o/wish/604468035 Debates! https://padlet.com/zeanfan/sucneiw0ww5o/wish/604471133 Sec 4 Tourism Impacts
One of the more 'polite' debates I have ever seen. But boy, do they enjoy it! They can actually research more than what is in the textbook - that's just one merit of having debates in class.
