| Goals: | Search for and share the conventional and formally acknowledged definitions of the selected TRIs, reflecting on the standard prototypes of RIs they represent and agreeing on the denotative meaning of the selected terms. | ||||||||
| DESCRIPTION OF TASKS: | |||||||||
| Step 1. Search and compilation of standard definitions | Students search and compile individually as many standard definitions and denotative meanings of the agreed RIs as they can. They consult main dictionaries, glossaries and other qualified references/sources, including teachers. | ||||||||
| Step 2. Exchange and agreement on conventional definitions | Students share the results of their investigation, searching for agreement on the most conventional definitions according to the group views on the prototypes they convey. The coordinator encourages all participants to share their views and the controller/s collect/s the essential information to achieve the objectives of each step and to deliver at the end the joint evaluative task. | ||||||||
| Step 3. Creation of joint compilation | Students create a joint compilation of agreed definitions, listing the TRIs with their standard descriptions, adding all significant information about these conventional prototypes of RIs and the references/sources where the information comes from. | ||||||||
| Step 4. Delivery of partial results (optional) | Students deliver this partial evaluative task (i.e. joint compilation) to the teacher, if it is considered appropriate. | ||
