What did you hope your students would learn from this learning activity? Pupils will gain awareness on agritourism and to promote local culture to the community and global audience using what they have discovered in their research. They will first gather information from the locals to find out the attractions of their hometown. Also they have to find out the threats they would face if they execute this project. They will also gather information about local people by interviewing, reading local bulletins and online resources. 3.

18 Page Procedure of Activity As this activity takes a duration of four weeks, each week plays a vital role. Therefore, instructions must be made clearly at the beginning of the activity. Week 1: Pre-activity: Before the activity, articles, news clippings on cottage industries and agritourism are prepared. Authentic reviews from travel sites are also prepared. These articles or news clippings can be presented on slides of pictures and descriptions. During the activity: During the lesson as pre-activity, pupils are asked to choose a minimum of 3 items from the picture and descriptions that they would like to promote to potential tourists. Next, the Todaysmeet platform will be prepared with the activity task, rubrics and questions. A list of student s name will also be prepared before the lesson. During the lesson, pupils are asked to delegate jobs to each member. They will be asked to write their reasons for choosing the pictures and they will explain the reasons they have chosen these attractions or local product in the forum session on Todaysmeet. They can ask their peers questions and make sure they give good reasoning. Also, possible threats to this task will be asked and strategies that they would take to overcome it. The teacher will be the moderator. Everyone must participate in this discussion. A checklist will be distributed to the pupils. Week 2: In the second week, a list of words and phrases that are found in other websites (Tripadvisor or LonelyPlanet), that are used to promote the attractions, including its meanings will be prepared. During this stage, pupils will construct magnetic and catchy words and phrases that could attract readers and potential tourists. Good and correct examples will be displayed on Powerpoint.

19 Page 18 By this week, each group would have already gathered information, pictures and background research and are able to write a few sentences and to save their descriptions on the tourist spots on WIX. The teacher will check their work after the lesson and give feedback in the next lesson. Authentic reviews on TripAdvisor or LonelyPlanet will be displayed on Powerpoint. The pupils are to find the factors that interests or repulses tourists. Similarities and differences of different cottage industries and interesting cultures that attracts tourists will be discussed on Todaysmeet. Week 3: By the third week, pupils will collaborate to create their website using WIX. Each group member will work together to compile all their findings and descriptions. They will also upload their pictures and organise their website layout. Factors that make or break a website will be discussed on Todaysmeet. Week 4: In their final week, the pupils will present their website and give a summary of everything that they have learnt in the lesson by stating a moral value and giving their opinion or suggestions. The other pupils, being the audience, will evaluate their peers website using a checklist and offer constructive critisism on the other groups websites. Validity Rationale In this formative type of activity, it is an ongoing and it provides information needed to adjust my teaching methods and making the learning outcome more effective. Unlike paper and pen activity, it gauges pupils understanding and readiness to proceed to further tasks. As the assessor, this activity will focus on the process of completing the task, which includes research, writing and taking pictures and the creation of a webpage. Test validity refers to the soundness of the interpretations of test scores for a particular purpose.

20 Page 19 Test Specification Table which includes HOTS and LOTS Question Title Thinking Skills T1 Participation T2 Language Accuracy T3 Presentation Language T4 Accuracy Weblog T5 Construction Layout and T6 Creativity Language T7 Accuracy Number of Questions Total Questions LOTS: Lower Order Thinking Skills TEST SPECIFICATION TABLE Remembering Comprehension Application Analysing Synthesizing Creating LOTS LOTS LOTS HOTS HOTS HOTS HOTS: Higher Order Thinking Skills Participation and Language Accuracy during their participation in the discussion falls under the Lower Order Thinking Skills as pupils are required to list, name, locate and find a suitable tourist venue that they would like to put on their weblog. They are also required to classify and explain the reasons for their choice of venue and justify their responses with evidence. Presentation and Language Accuracy for their verbal presentation falls under both Lower Order Thinking Skills and Higher Order Thinking Skills. The students will implement their speaking skills when they present their weblog to the audience. They will also execute the function of their weblog to be presented to their peers. Their Language Accuracy is categorised as the HOTS element as they are required to intergrate skills and compare their tourist venues to their peers.

21 Page 20 The weblog construction, layout and creativity and language accuracy all falls in the HOTS categories. The weblog construction itself is a product that they have deviced, edited, compiled and made on their own. Their layout and creativity shows synthesizing of information and critique their own creations. The language accuracy also falls under analysis, comparing and structuring sentences to grasp the audience s interest in their weblog. Formative activity is ongoing and provides information needed to adjust teaching and learning for a more effective outcome. It helps to monitor pupils progress throughout an activity and also gauge student understanding and readiness to proceed to further tasks. I need to be able to distinguish between the capabilities of the tool and the pupils performance when using it. To assess a well produced weblog and presentation, I need to assess the thinking and collaboration of pupils that went into the creation of the weblog. This allows teachers to focus on learning throughout the whole task rather than the end product. Peer to peer Checklist To gather data, the procedure of this activity are as follows. Firstly, in Week 1 the pupils were divided into eight groups. Four pupils are divided in one group. Each week, pupils were asked to write a question or response in TodaysMeet platform during every English lesson. I will have a checklist ready (Appendix 3) for the students to check. Starting from Week 2, pupils were asked to delegate their jobs, gather information, do interviews with local residents and do a field trip to the designated place they would like to promote. In week 3, they will be in the computer lab, designing their websites and its contents. They will start putting information and arranging the layouts, adding and editing its contents and pictures. For each picture, a short description must be typed for each picture.

22 Page 21 In week 4, all pupils in the group will present their websites to their peers in class. Other pupils will provide feedback to the other groups using a simple checklist adopted from Al-hazmi and Scholfield (2007). Table: Peer to Peer Evaluation Checklist Peer to Peer Evaluation Checklist Available Available (High) (Low) Main Points: 1. Is there a title in the website? 2. Are there any attraction sites portrayed on the website? (at least 3) 3. Is there a description for activities tourists may do there? 4. Is there any contact information available if tourists are interested? Content: 1. Is the website interesting and attention gripping? 2. Are the pictures and layout organised? Language: 1. Are the descriptions in the website written in fluent grammar accuracy? 2. Are the descriptions in the website written in fluent mechanical accuracy? 3. Does the description show any new and profound vocabulary? Yes Does the website need improvement? Unavailable (None) No Notes: Please state your reasons. Recommendation for improvement.
