Mind Maps, or PPT, or directly in PADLET).
Awareness (30-60 minutes):
1. Based on the pupils' answers, the teacher determines the questions that need to be
solved (knowledge that needs to be supplemented to fulfill the goal) - to explain the
operation of systems, their interconnection.
2. Pupils use the Human body application or the Internet (Wikipedia) to look for
answers, they work in groups with tablets, 2 in 1 equipment, their own equipment.
The CLIL method (English language keyword search) is used.
3. The groups present information about the topic (general information) - they answer
the questions and findings obtained between the groups are gathered and shared
(One Note / Word / PPT).
4. The teacher summarizes the short presentation of the necessary knowledge (MS
PowerPoint / OpenOffice / LibreOffice / Google Office / Canva / Slides / Prezi ...),
