Choose an interesting scene from the video and play it again. Turn the sound off, leaving students with only the visual information. Ask the students to fill in the script in response to the visual cues they receive. Discussion, one of the primary aims of shiting shuo stimulates communication among students, so it is important that a video presentation should lead to follow-up activities as the basis for further extended oral practice. One way to achieve communicative practice is to conduct a discussion of what is presented in the video unit.
Discussion offers students an opportunity to develop sharing and cooperative skills.
A good discussion helps to arouse interest because the students taking part are challenged to think. However, it requires careful and thoughtful planning. The discussion is usually more successful when the teacher has clear goals and purposes in mind, both in the advance planning stage, and during the discussion. To make sure that students have something to say or something to share, prepare the necessary vocabulary that students need to express their ideas about the discussion topic. If you want to review and reinforce the ideas or viewpoints in the video, assign students responsibility for making a list of key points that support a particular position in the video presentation and then use these as a starting point for discussion.
