Goal

Duration: 10 - 15 minutes

The aim of this section is to assist learners in grasping the different ideologies that influence social groups and how they shape perceptions and behaviours. By the end of this phase, learners should be equipped to identify and analyze beliefs from various ideological frameworks and relate them to modern-day realities.

Goal Utama:

1. Identify and describe the key ideologies found in various social groups (political, religious, economic, and legal).

2. Analyze how these ideologies shape the attitudes and actions of individuals within these groups.

3. Connect concepts of ideology to contemporary events and contexts, using relevant examples from everyday life.

Goal Sekunder:

  1. Enhance research skills and integrate information from one or more digital sources.
  2. Encourage critical thinking and the ability to debate from diverse ideological viewpoints.

Introduction

Duration: 10 - 15 minutes

The goal of this stage is to prepare learners for a discussion on ideologies by encouraging them to source relevant and current information digitally. This initial interaction will also stimulate critical thinking and the sharing of ideas, paving the way for the in-depth activities that will follow.

Warming Up

To kick off the lesson, explain to learners that understanding ideology is essential for grasping social dynamics and the various viewpoints that influence our opinions and behaviours. Encourage learners to use their phones to find an interesting or recent fact related to a political, religious, economic, or legal ideology they think is relevant. They’ll have a few moments to do this research before sharing their findings with the class.

Initial Thoughts

1. What are some of the main ideologies you discovered in your research?

2. How do these ideologies affect the attitudes and behaviours of people in a social group?

3. Did you come across any ideology that’s currently trending on social media?

4. In what ways do ideologies influence political or economic decisions within a society?

5. How can ideological representations be reflected in legal practices and norms?

Development

Duration: 75 - 80 minutes

This phase aims to actively involve learners in practical and dynamic activities that allow them to apply the knowledge of ideologies to contextualized and current situations. The proposed tasks are designed to make learning interactive, enjoyable, and pertinent, utilizing digital technologies as tools.

Activity Suggestions

Activity Recommendations

Activity 1 - Storytelling on Social Media: Building Ideological Narratives 🌐

> Duration: 60 - 70 minutes

- Goal: To develop the skills needed for creating digital narratives that express and clarify different ideologies, promoting information synthesis and critical thinking.

- Deskripsi Activity: Learners will develop a series of posts for a fictional social media platform, creating a narrative that embodies a specific ideology (political, religious, economic, or legal). This activity will engage their skills in synthesizing information and using multimedia tools to communicate their ideas effectively.

- Instructions:

  • Divide learners into groups of up to 5 members.

  • Each group must select an ideology (political, religious, economic, or legal) to represent.

  • Guide learners to create a profile on a fictional social media platform (this can be presented through slides or using a digital content creation tool).

  • Each group must generate at least 5 posts that articulate a coherent narrative reflecting the chosen ideology, incorporating text, images, videos, or other media.

  • Encourage groups to use hashtags and tag related fictional or real profiles linked to the ideology.

  • Once the posts are completed, each group will present their profile and narrative to the class.

Activity 2 - Digital Influencer: Defend Your Ideology 📱

> Duration: 60 - 70 minutes

- Goal: To enhance the ability to argue and persuade while promoting a critical examination of ideologies through digital production.

- Deskripsi Activity: In this task, learners will impersonate digital influencers and produce content (like short videos, stories, or posts) that advocate for a particular ideology. They should employ persuasive arguments and current examples to engage their 'audience'.

- Instructions:

  • Divide learners into groups of up to 5 members.

  • Each group will select an ideology (political, religious, economic, or legal) to advocate for.

  • Guide the groups in creating a media plan, determining which content types (short videos, stories, posts) they will produce.

  • Groups must create at least three pieces of content that defend their ideology, using persuasive messaging and relevant examples.

  • The groups will upload their content to a shared digital platform (like a shared folder or a class blog).

- Instructions:

  • Divide learners into groups of up to 5 members.

  • Utilise an online quiz platform (like Kahoot or Quizizz) to craft an interactive game with questions on ideologies.

  • Each group will register as a team and respond to the questions displayed on the screen.

  • The questions should encompass both contemporary and historical examples of various ideologies, along with challenges for learners to identify ideological representations across different contexts.

  • At the conclusion of the quiz, announce the results and acknowledge the groups with the best performance.

  • Host a final discussion where groups reflect on the most challenging questions and share their insights.

Feedback

Duration: 15 - 20 minutes

The aim of this section is to solidify the knowledge learners have gained, encouraging reflection on the activities performed while promoting the sharing of insights and learning. The group discussion and 360° feedback are also meant to enhance social and communication skills, essential for learners’ academic and personal growth.

Group Discussion

Encourage a group discussion with all learners present, where each group shares their learning experiences and conclusions drawn from the activities. Suggest the following structure to initiate the conversation:

  1. Introduction: Each group should briefly present the ideology they selected and provide a summary of the posts or content they created.
  2. Experience and Challenges: Inquire what challenges the groups faced while creating their content and how they overcame these obstacles.
  3. Learning: Request groups to discuss the most significant insights they gained regarding their selected ideology and how the activity deepened their understanding.
  4. Connection to Reality: Explore how the activities relate to events and contexts familiar to the learners.

Reflections

1. Which aspect of the ideology was the hardest to express or defend on social media, and why? 2. In which ways do the differing ideologies presented by the groups influence modern society regarding politics, the economy, religion, and law? 3. What insights did you gain about the importance of critical thinking while analysing and defending ideologies on social media?

Feedback 360º

Implement a 360° feedback session where each learner gives and receives feedback from their group members. Guide students to keep feedback constructive and respectful. Follow these steps:

  1. Positive Feedback: Each student should start by highlighting one positive aspect of each colleague's contribution.
  2. Areas for Improvement: Following that, each student should suggest an area for improvement for their colleagues, in a supportive and constructive manner.
  3. Reflection: Finally, encourage students to reflect on the feedback they’ve received and how it can help them improve in future activities.

Conclusion

🔍 Purpose: The purpose of this last section is to consolidate and reflect on the learnings from the lesson, linking them to real-world contexts and underlining their practical significance. This concluding moment aims to reinforce comprehension of the concepts tackled, providing a clear understanding of how ideologies influence society and how students can apply this knowledge in their everyday lives.

Summary

📸 Creative Summary: Picture a digital mural where every learner contributed a piece depicting political, religious, economic, and legal ideologies. We've seen how these ideologies can serve as lenses that shape a social group's perspective of the world. From this variety, we crafted narratives for a fictional social media space, championed ideas as digital influencers, and deciphered these ideologies through an interactive quiz show! 🌍

World

🌍 Connection to Today's World: In our digital times, ideologies are continuously discussed and shared across social media and communication platforms. Understanding these ideologies equips us to interpret and critique the information we encounter every day, as well as prepare us to engage in informed and constructive discussions about important contemporary societal issues.

Applications

📱 Importance and Applications: Delving into ideologies enables us to comprehend the basis of people's views and actions as well as social groups. This understanding is vital for fostering critical thought and navigating a world where ideas are rapidly shared and debated online. The ability to analyse and discuss ideologies is an essential skill, both academically and for participating actively in civic life.
