Streamlining a text Linking to previous knowledge Beneficial outside school Helps in writing reports, emails, or presentations — making them clear and concise. In real life, people constantly connect new information to what they already know to learn faster. In the classroom (simulation). Students can rewrite a long article into a short news summary.

in daily life: Translating or explaining official forms, rules, or news to someone with limited language skills. While taking part in various projects. collaboration, etc.

How can it be benefitial outside the classroom: it helps people explain complex information clearly.

It builds strong communication and mediation skills.

- Explaining a news article or video to a classmate who hasn’t seen it.

- Creating a short presentation or infographic that makes a complex topic clear.

- Rewriting formal or academic text into a simple and understandable text.

These activities help students practice amplifying meaning and developing real-life mediation skills.

In the classroom, acting as an intermediary can be simulated through real-life situations, peer explanations, or group projects, group problem-solving, where students clarify information or connect different viewpoints for others.
