Recommended by teachers

Case method | Cooperative learning

Concrete, realistic situations are individually analysed; afterwards, the resulting vision is presented and discussed in the group.
The individual’s vision is reappraised after seeking additional information. The different visions are selected and appraised.

Corner debate | Group activity

For making a choice or deciding on a point of view
The students are given a question/assignment/proposition with a list of choices. Each of these choices is assigned a particular location in the classroom, for example, a corner. Individual students choose one of these corners. (The choices are quickly written down on paper, so that you can’t see what your friends have written).
Students go to their ‘chosen’ corner. They talk in pairs about their choice and look into the arguments. This can lead to a class discussion. If necessary, students join another group. Which group is able to attract the most ‘defectors’?
Students return to their places and write down the most important arguments for each of the choices.

Learning discussion (or evaluation or discussion method) | Dialogue

Students learn how to find solutions for themselves (via diagrams, plans, outlines, etc.)
Discussion (individual or as part of a group) about the learning experiences of the student; the teacher acts as moderator and remains in the background. The emphasis is on (learning) how to identify learning moments: what could have been improved and how?

Storytelling | Content-based

Presentation of poems, eye-witness reports, etc. The more authentic, the better.

Three-phase interview | Group activity

The teacher formulates questions, which are answered by pairs each time. Student A interviews student B about the question. Afterwards, student B interviews student A.
A subsequent round follows in a group of four students. Each person tells the others what the outcomes of their interview were. A explains what B said, etc.
This is concluded with a class discussion.

Example: Say you wanted to live on your own: what would be involved?
