- Instructions:

• Form groups of up to 5 students and create a fictional YouTube channel focused on Mathematics.

• Divide tasks for video production (script writing, filming, editing, etc.).

• Each group should produce a video explaining the concept of a set, using practical examples from day-to-day life.

• Create further videos demonstrating the operations of union, difference, and intersection, using visual aids and real-world examples.

• Upload the videos to the fictional channel and share the links with the class.

• After publishing, each group should present their videos to the class, reflecting on key learnings and challenges faced during production.

Feedback

Duration: 20 - 25 minutes

🎯 Purpose: This stage aims to consolidate learning by allowing students to reflect on their experiences, discuss challenges and successes, while receiving valuable feedback from classmates. This promotes a collaborative and continuous learning atmosphere where everyone can grow together and enhance their skills.

Group Discussion

🌐 Group Discussion: Facilitate a group discussion where each team shares insights from their activities. To kick off the discussion, follow this script:

Introduction: Start by discussing the significance of reflecting on what was learned and sharing insights with peers. Group Presentations: Ask each group to present the main highlights from their activities, focusing on the operations performed (union, difference, intersection) and the sets they discussed. Applications and Discoveries: Motivate students to explore how set concepts can be linked to real-world scenarios and the digital space, showcasing any fascinating discoveries they made during their activities. Individual Contribution: After group presentations, open the floor for contributions from everyone, inviting others to ask questions, offer comments, and add to the groups’ discussions.

Reflections

1. ❓ How did the hands-on activities enhance your understanding of set concepts? 2. ❓ What were the biggest challenges you faced during the activities, and how did you manage them? 3. ❓ How do you think sets can be applied in other areas of life or in different subjects?
