Scaffolding Academic Language with ‘What’s Missing?’ (Higher Education)

$5.00

Instead of memorising academic language, give your students the opportunity to verbalise images you present to them – and images that don’t appear. To do this, they’ll need to use deeper thinking, creative skills, and verbalise their thought processes. You’ll be amazed at the engagement of your students and their comprehension afterwards of the content of the lesson, after they spend 10-15 minutes on this fast-paced scaffolding technique.

Category:

Our students are facing  a professional career in the age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which means they need to be more divergent thinkers than technology is. This scaffold gives them the opportunity to use discernment, creativity and negotiating skills to identify information that is present and information that is not present. You’ll see that the quality of thinking your students reach in your classes after participating in this collaborative dynamic, will be the difference between being qualified for jobs that technology is (still) not capable of performing, and watching the world from the sidelines.
