THAT'S COOL, THAT'S NOT COOL

OBJECTIVE

Knowing the pros and cons of the hyper-connected world.

TIME ALLOCATED

A session of 45 - 60 minutes.

DEVELOPMENT

In small groups, draw up a list of the advantages and disadvantages of being hyperconnected. At the end, hold a debating session to bring together the proposals of all the groups. Some of the proposals can be considered advantages or limitations, depending on the pros and cons that emerge from the debate. If students find it difficult to "get started", the teacher can suggest these examples.

Our students searched the Internet for humorous cartoons about everyday situations of hyperconnectedness. Some pupils, as can be seen in the picture, have chosen to make wonderful traditional drawings which they shared in the video call. This social board contains most of the work done by the 8 classes.
