One part of the class will have to support this idea, trying to convince the others, while the second group has to come up with the drawbacks of the idea. 4) In the end the pupils will have to decide together which group is right, why and to what extent; they will be asked to evaluate the benefit of the game. |

If there is one group many students want to join, it is possible that two small groups work on the same topic. If one group is of no interest for anyone, simply leave it out. – Create a fake profile: *Set up a blank profile; give login data to students who can spread the profile on social media with friends; they could also add things themselves * Only students of that group create a fake profile – Internet research about public figures who shared something and afterwards needed to deal with a “shitstorm” – Photo manipulation: workshop with a simple photo app (to be or to pretend to be) – Journalists: observe the other groups, take pictures, report about their progress After 1 hour, all groups come together again and every group presents their results.
