Lesson planning

In this activity you will think about a game previously identified and consider how it could be used in your class. These ideas will then be reviewed by your peers and tutor.

Activity 5 Develop a lesson plan false false

Timing: 1 hour (online) during week 3

The objectives of this course activity are: 

  • to develop a lesson plan that addresses the learning need you’ve identified
  • to become aware of some implementation issues related to using games in the classroom.

Create a plan, around one side of A4, using a game selected in Activity 4 which addresses one of your learning needs.

Consider your learning goal, how to introduce it, how the game will be played, implementation issues and how you will assess the impact.

Consider the questions in Activity 4 when writing it up. Upload the plan to the shared thread ‘Tutorial: Confirming plans’. You will need to use these plans to inform the remaining activities.
