TASK II. LET'S INVITE PEOPLE TO THE OLYMPIC GAMES! (Estimated duration 45')

- The class will be divided into 5 groups of 5 students.

- With this task you are going to work in small groups. It will help you enhance social skills and cooperative learning strategies.

- You should be responsible to use critically, creatively and ethically the Information and Communication Technologies to work cooperatively in this funny task so that the information you obtain will have to be transformed into meaningful knowledge.

- It is quite important that you are creative and original enough to select some pictures and to design some slogans by means of which you encourage people all over the world either to participate or to attend the Olympic Games Celebration. This Ceremony is regarded as a wonderful and amazing international sporting event where multiculturalism and intercultural awareness immediately arise. Also, it offers people an extraordinary opportunity to meet people from different cultures which implies learning more about their lifestyles, traditions or languages; always demonstrating RESPECT for all of them.

-  I am going to monitor your work, writing down the way each of you contribute to the group. Furthermore, I am going to be at your disposal in case you need my help.

- Description of the task: You are going to be involved in the design of a digital leaflet via google.doc (I am going to provide you with some accounts to register in google.doc in case you do not have one). You will have to work applying cooperative learning techniques, exchanging ideas and opinions about how to make your leaflet better, making decisions and reflecting on your own work at the end of the task. Your leaflets will be shared with your partners through the wiki so that all of you can enjoy theses projects.

BE ORIGINAL AND CREATIVE IS THE KEY, LET'S GO!

There is an example of leaflet below. It was used to invite people to attend the Olympic Games in London 2012.
