Jigsaw task for listening comprehension of a description of a painting

Disgrifiad

This English teacher and trainer is preparing these masters learners for a French national university language proficiency exam (CLES;a test designed on the principles of task-based learning). Because the learners are also pre-service primary school teachers;the professor also wants to expose them to learning technologies that will be useful in their teaching careers;and so has them use the class Smart board to support the task-based activities he has planned.

In this activity;the teacher has prepared a page on which different sections of a painting have been scrambled like a jigsaw. After listening to an audio description of the painting;the learners’ task is to reconstruct the original painting by moving the pieces on the board. In this extract;the learner at the board needs help with the word “”feather”” from the other learners.
