Time to speak!

Speaking task 4

  1. Find another student/or students with the same text as you had selected (or at least the same topic).
  2. Play memory with your self-made cards. It does not matter if the vocabulary overlaps. Make sure to read the cards out loud as you turn them over.
  3. If you are doing this individually, you can play “memory” by yourself.

 

Speaking task 5

Speed date: divide the group into two equally large groups, group A and group B. Students from group A sit apart from each other. Students from group B find a speaking partner from group A. Sit across from each other and talk about the questions below. After 5 minutes, group B switches speaking partners.  >You can use any materials from the previous assignments as an aid in the conversation if appropriate.

Try to answer one or two of the following questions in your speed date

  • What are the rules concerning tidying up and behaviour at your placement school? Can you give an example from your own placement school whether this works or not?
  • What have you learned from the input text and did it change your view on any of the above questions?
  • What have you learned from the stories of other students?

 

For independent work using ChatGPT*:

Write down in a few bullet points about the questions provided and why. Give at least three arguments.

After that you open ChatGPT and argue in your own words and support with arguments.

Before speaking enter prompt 1 on ChatGPT: I want to discuss (insert question here). Please listen and estimate my CEFR level of speaking.

  • After speaking, enter prompt 2: Please estimate my CEFR level of speaking.
  • After speaking, enter prompt 3: What suggestions can you make to improve my vocabulary, based on my speaking?
  • After speaking, enter prompt 4: What suggestions can you make to improve my grammar, based on my speaking?

After each ‘After speaking’ prompt, make notes of the feedback ChatGPT gives.

 

*Please note: please do not share any personal data with ChatGPT, such as your own name, age, address, school, or other personal information.

 

Speaking task 6

In small groups you will choose one area of tidying up: tidying up, behavioural rules in the classroom, or reflecting on their own day. Together you will make a list with helpful pointers on the topic, and how you came to these pointers, and afterwards present it to the other groups.

If this is not possible in a classroom situation you can also make your own list of pointers, input these in genAI and ask for feedback and in-depth ideas.
