In this lesson, I have design an activity where students use freeform to complete their reading activity. In the freeform template there are instructions, reading text and the template of a mind map. Using the scene function in freeform, I have set a few scenes in order to focus on specific tasks.
The first scene would be the “Instructions”. After reading the instructions, students would go to “Scene 1” to read the text. Then students would have to fill in the mind map in “Scene 2-5”. Finally students will have to look for a youtube video related to the text and attach it in the designated area in the mind map.
