| How to conduct it | Operationalization: This exercise can be executed in a paper form or as an interactive worksheet. a) Interactive mode: Create an interactive worksheet with a matching exercise. The worksheet should contain a table with 8 columns, each column representing 1 type of MI. Characteristics typical of the 8 respective MI types are listed above or below the table (depending on the preference). Trainees drag each characteristic to the corresponding column of the table. There are many applications available now, but Liveworksheets is a free and very simple to use option. After the worksheet is created, a link is generated that can easily be sent out to all the participants. They complete the exercise, either hit the CHECK ANSWERS button or send it to the teacher's mailbox. In any case, the application corrects participants' answers, and the number of points is available right away. LearningApps.org is also a good option. b) Paper mode: Give each pair/group of teachers/trainers one flipchart paper and cut out characteristics of MI types. They draw a table with 8 columns and distribute the cut-out characteristics across the table (or if you have enough flipcharts for all the groups, they can use safety pins to attach the answers). In this case the teacher/trainer needs to check the answers. Preparation: The teacher prepares the materials depending on the work mode that was chosen and age/interest of the learners/participants |
