Discussion Leader Directions

Next week, each of you will lead a discussion on a topic that interests you. You will use the article that you posted on your blogs last week as the basis for this discussion or another article or video that you have found interesting.

Here are some things to keep in mind when you are the discussion leader:

·      How will you introduce the topic to your audience? Will you ask a question, show pictures, show a short video, etc.?

·      How will you report the main ideas to your audience? Will you write on the board? Will you show links? Will you use PowerPoint or some other software?

·      How will you conclude the discussion? Will you ask the audience a question or have them complete a short activity? Will you ask the audience for their opinion?

As the discussion leader, you are free to present the information in any way you feel appropriate. Remember that a discussion leader includes the audience in some way rather than just lecturing.

The computer and projector will be available to use as you lead the discussion.
