Case Study: Business English with Miss Leyla
Assessment:
There should always be some assessment with these projects. It is possible to determine how well students gathered information, whether they asked good questions, and whether they could appreciate the limits to their work as well as its strengths.
Strengths:
Asks students to imagine a business project – which creates a greater link. Makes sense in the sphere of Business! Asks them to imagine themselves in a similar situation—this will deter othering (the idea that this situation would only happen to others). Gives them an opportunity to lead the team, project management, and cash flow through their own interest in solving a problem.
Risks:
Risks making them feel self-confidence in a way that might make them stronger! You can teach in ways that confront this tendency.
