Task: Prepare for Panel Discussion1. Decide on a group leader who will
keep the group on task. 2. Come to consensus about your answers
to the four questions. 3. Decide who will present the information and how
you will do it. For Question 3, you might choose to act out a lesson rather than describe it. All of the group members should participate in the presentation in some way.
After each panel presentation, turn to apartner and discuss these questions:•How is this technique/approach student-centred?•How is it not student-centred?•How did you rate the technique (5, 3, 0)? Why? If you rated it a 3, which elements would you use in a classroom?
