Dear language enthusiasts,
First of all, allow me to apologize for having been absent for so long! I have been exploring new ways to enhance my English language teaching practice, completely absorbed by the potential Artificial Intelligence has brought into play! I have been researching new methods of incorporating AI into my classroom and ended up designing captivating role-play activities, among others! As you all know, role-play activities have been hailed as powerful tools in language education. They immerse students in real-life situations, allowing them to apply new language skills in context.
With this idea in mind, I have crafted an activity that delves into diverse attitudes to ageing in present-day society. Any blended teachers in Galicia who are dealing with Module 2 in the C1.1 course... this has you covered! Obviously, I have used Canva to design the cards representing the different characters, each with their own perspective on ageing.
Asking ChatGPT to create the roles was not difficult at all. Once I had the idea in mind, the game came out easily and it did the trick in class. Who do you think the most popular character was? Place your bets!
