## Task 3: Listening

You are going to watch a documentary called 'Andrew Marr's History of the World' in three parts: each time you watch 20 minutes followed by an assignment.

You can choose between 3 assignments for this documentary. Depending on how good you are at listening you can decide which assignment you would like to do. The assignments can be found in It's Learning. You can choose between:

1A: answer MC-questions about the documentary & summarize

1B: take notes, summarize & present content of the documentary

1C: take notes, create your own test about the documentary.

Together with your teacher, decide which assignment you will do. Have a good look at the listening part of your diagnostic test to find out what suits you best!

Before you start: what do you think the documentary is about? Do the test, go to Itslearning.

Hand in your assignment by Itslearning.

## Task 3C Create/design

Watch the first 20 minutes of the documentary and design a test for it. Think of at least 6 MC-questions to ask about the 20-minute fragment. There are three eras in this part of the documentary, make sure you have questions on all 3 eras.

Make sure you ask 'test-proof' MC questions:

- Het antwoord moet te vinden zijn zonder te kijken: het gaat om het gesproken Engels!

- Maak geen vragen over 'droge feiten' uit de documentaire, dat is te makkelijk. De MC-keuze opties moeten hele zinnen zijn, geen losse woorden, jaartallen etc. Focus op vragen die beginnen met: 'Wat wordt er gezegd over...' of 'Hoe kwam het dat....' 'Wat was de reden dat...' Wat waren de gevolgen/oorzaken van...'

- Zorg voor goede meerkeuze-opties:
  - Zorg 1 antwoord bij die redelijk logisch klinkt, maar niet voorkomt in het fragment.
  - Zorg voor 1 antwoord waar een belangrijk woord in zit dat voorkomt in het fragment, maar NIET het juiste antwoord is.
  - Zorg voor een duidelijk juist antwoord, wees ervan overtuigd dat dit ook echt gezegd wordt!
- Maak ook een antwoordmodel

Kopieer de toets & het antwoordmodel in je Portfolio Word-document 'Andrew Marr's History of the World'.
