Project-Based Learning, Think-Pair Share Activities:
- Through cooperative learning, learners are prepared to work together either as partners or in small groups on clearly defined instructions and tasks.
- Each prepares a 5-point reasoned argument about the dangers of a bad habit to the society and presents to the class. The presentations are collated and the best five are selected as the 5-point reasoned argument.
GESI-conscious activity: The simulation gives learners the understanding of instances of GESI biases in their communities, and through awareness activities they work to bring about the needed cultural changes.
