OUR ACTIVITY
This session consists of a virtual hospital, in other words, the pupils, in groups, will play doctors to explore the different systems that make up the human body through the EON-XR app.
The target age of our activity is -> 6th grade (11 - 12 years old)
The target language level of our activity is -> A1 or A2
We mainly want to locate our activity in the laboratory, but if they do not have one, in the school's corridors in order to give students more freedom when experimenting with the app.
HANDS ON - how the activity would be implemented
During the implementation of the activity students will follow the instructions that you can find in this QR code, to make it much easier to use the app and the fluidity of the activity. ( You can also find the instructions in the materials part )
LESSON AIMS
Production: Students will produce oral and written descriptions of the human body and its systems.
Interaction: Students will interact with each other to play the roles of patients, nurses, and doctors.
Mediation: Students will use the app to learn more about the human body and its systems.
Communicative Language Competences: Students will use language to communicate about the human body and its systems.
Plurilingual & Pluricultural: Students will learn about the human body and its systems in a variety of ways.
SWBATs - learning objectives
Review the different systems of the human body in a practical and fun way.
Develop communication and teamwork skills.
Encourage creativity and problem-solving.
Students will be able to identify the different systems that make up the human body.
Students will be able to describe the symptoms of common diseases and conditions.
Students will be able to explain how different systems work together to keep the body healthy.
Students will be able to use the app to learn more about the human body and its systems.
Students will be able to communicate effectively with others about the human body and its systems.
Students will develop their critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
PREPARATION OF THE TASK
- Downloading apps. Before the lesson, the app EON-XR should be downloaded to the class tablets. If they are using their phones, one member of each group should download the app on their mobile device. It is a simple process, so students should not take longer than 5 minutes to download it.
- Becoming familiar with technology. If students are unfamiliar with using augmented reality apps, we will provide them with an introduction or tutorial. We will do it in a brief period of time in class.
- Getting an account. The app we are using does require students to create accounts. However, teachers will create students' accounts in order to access it, and, in class, we will briefly guide students through the account creation process.
MATERIALS
Handouts:
Instructions sheet - to make it much easier to use the app and the fluidity of the activity.
Patient diagnosis flashcards - will be inside an envelope so that the students can check if they have been able to diagnose correctly.
Patients records sheet - different sheets with different patient records so students can diagnose them and guess the body system that is affected.
Role cards - to represent different medical roles (doctor, nurse, radiologist, etc.).
Table of characteristics sheet - students will have to write the characteristics of the body system.
Equipment:
Mobile devices or class tablets with the augmented reality app mentioned above (EON Reality).
Additional materials
Pencils and rubbers.
Doctor's glasses and gowns - to create a more medical atmosphere.
