Slide 4 - Diapositive
Badge the Terms:
All of these hotspots are movable.
The concept here is to interact with terminology in a different way. Share the screen with the learners and in the spirit of metacognition, drag the hotspots to the term to reflect on their own knowledge of the terms.
You can add or alter the hotspots easily.
Slide 5 - Diapositive
Spin the wheels to allocate different terms for students to research and become the expert in.
You can ignore the name wheel if you want. You may wish to delete terms as they come up!
You can edit the wheel easily to suit your needs!
Iago: Put money in thy purse. Follow thou the arts of the devil; and thou shalt be made a man of means.
Roderigo: How, how, I am to put money in thy purse?
Iago: Why, by making a lady of the most virtuous, lovely, and most gracious woman in the world, to be the bride of a drunken, sleepless, untrustworthy, faithless, and unworthy Moor. Thou art a fool, to let the wind blow to thine advantage, and let this ruffian fool play with you. The very rich and rare person whom the world reveres can be unmasked like a common woman; all will look with admiration to this lady’s fine aspects.
Roderigo: Shall I go? I’d go straight there
Iago: No – stay. Take money, put it in thy purse and have patience. Now, never more look to that land, and let your purse empty of all that’s in it.
