Teaching activities
Teaching activity 1: Polling
Use technology (e.g. Kahoot, Google Forms, Mentimeter) to let students vote on a statement. You can then display and discuss the results in real-time.
Teaching activity 2: Online Forum
Use an online forum or discussion board where students can share their opinions and respond to the opinions of others. This can also continue outside class time to keep the discussion lively.
Teaching activity 3: Voting with objects
Let students choose 2 different objects/postures to indicate a choice (agree/disagree) to a statement, such as: colours of papers (black and white), pen and paper, hands up or down, standing and sitting etc.
Teaching activity 4: On the line
Use an online tool (Mentimeter, PowerPoint), on which you put a line. Have students use Annotate in a PowerPoint or on Mentimeter to click their point of view on the line. For example, the left would be totally disagree and the right would be totally agree.
Consider the tools and materials mentioned here as suggestions. In many cases it’s possible to use alternative tools. Please turn to the Learning & Innovation team of your faculty first to see which online and offline tools are available and how to apply them.
