This semester I again got the inspiration for two of the project lesson plans from my students. Hereby I want to express my thanks to them and acknowledge their contribution to the project.

The first one, Exploring the issue of violence through Anthony Burgess’s "A Clockwork Orange", was inspired by a group of 3rd year bachelor students in the program of English teaching, who prepared a whole table top game to explore the various aspects of the literary work. Namely, Kristína Klampárová, Zuzana Kmeťová, and Simona Petrová.

This is how it looked during their class.

Since it would be very complicated to transform their ready made game plan to an online version, I decided to rework it into two versions: a powerpoint game and a card game.

The second lesson plan, Exploring cultural stereotypes through David Lodge’s "Changing places", was inspired by 2nd year bachelor students in the program of English teaching, namely, Michaela Blahová, Dominika Kóšová, and Diana Považanová.

Here are examples of some activities included in the lesson plan, such as a bingo game focused on revising the knowledge about the novel, 

a drawing activity in which students should describe a character from the novel through 5 items representative of the characters,

and a poster that will be the final outcome of the lesson, reconstructed through each student contributing their own ideas about the cultural stereotypes about British and American people they observed in the novel or in modern media, and about stereotypes in general.
