Material Detail

In this cooperative learning activity, intermediate-level students of French will work in small groups on a language project concerning Alzheimer's Disease and the effect that it has on caregivers. The project begins mainly as a listening activity, with pre-listening, listening and post-listening segments provided by the Radio France Internationale Langue Francaise website. The students will work together to get the general idea of the broadcast and then refine their understanding of a radio broadcast that treats the Alzheimer's topic. After the group works through various printed activities supplied by RFI on its website, including the joint creation of a French language poster on Alzheimer caregivers, the students will reflect on their heightened awareness about the topic as well as the impact the group activity had on the development of their listening skills in French. The culminating activity will happen in a class discussion forum.This material has been developed through Merlot as part of its collaboration with the SERC Pedagogic Service.
