Mind-map contest term 2 Semester 7

Students mind-map contest

Term 2 Week 13

5 Dec. 2013

2 Safer. 1435

This week was the due date for choosing the best mind-maps. During the weekly workshop session, all the mind-maps were posted on the wall in the curriculum kitchen room for all teachers to see and choose. The best group mind-map and the best individual mind-map. All the teachers voted for the best one.

We introduced the idea of mind-mapping from term one week one. teachers used flip-chart paper for students mind-maps as well as A4 and A3. Through our experience in the program, we notice, that most students lack important skills and tools to learn. Our overall goal is to teach then to learn how to learn.

This is second time we held this contest in our program. Mind-mapping is a skill needed to learn any language. We hope through this contest we can share and learn how teachers and students are working together to develop this important skill. We want our students to use this skill not only to participate for this contest, but something they can use, after this program.Here are samples of the mind-maps that were nominated for the contest.

3- Share good ideas and document them.
4- Monitor the curriculum as it is being implemented.
5- Monitor and document the development of students’ portfolios.
