Telecollaborative Project between Singapore and Brunei primary schools.
Project: Planning a travel itinerary
Objective: To enhance students’ speaking and writing skills.
Target group: Primary 4 Singapore students and Primary 5 students from Brunei
Technology used: Skype or Window Live Messenger and Google Documents
The reason why we have chosen either Skype or Window Live Messenger for communication between the students across the two countries is because it is easy to use and there are not many buttons for the students to use.
Final product: The Brunei students will have to write a travel itinerary on places that they want to go in Singapore while the Singapore students will have to write the travel itinerary on places they want to go in Brunei.
For a start, the students will introduce themselves, their school and their friends. After the self introduction, they can proceed to the activity in the next session.
Activity:
Each student from each country will be paired with each other. They will then communicate through Skype and introduce more about their country and the places of interest that they want to recommend to their friends. They would also have to let their friends know why they have selected the places.
Some information about what is exactly that the students are going to be doing, in what order, in groups/pairs/ etc. would be good.
ReplyDeleteThe idea is great. I hope you get to make it possible and then write about in the blog.
