Unit 2 Digital life-E A mini-survey on digital life (Project) This project is centered around digital life, aiming to guide students to conduct a mini - survey. Through this process, students will explore various aspects of digital life, such as the usage of digital devices, online activities, and the impact of digitalization on daily life. It integrates language skills including listening, speaking, reading, writing, and also involves data collection, analysis, and report - making, which comprehensively improves students' language ability and practical skills in a digital context. 教学目标 Students will be able to master key vocabulary related to digital life, such as "digital device", "online shopping", "social media", "download", "upload", etc. Learn useful sentence patterns for expressing opinions and making surveys, like "In my opinion, digital devices have changed our lives a lot.", "How often do you use...?", "What do you usually do on...?" Grasp the basic structure and format of a survey report, including the title, introduction, body, conclusion, and suggestions. 教学重难点 1. Teaching Key Points The design of scientific and reasonable survey questions that can effectively collect the desired information about digital life. The collection and organization of survey data, and how to use simple statistical methods to analyze the data. The writing of a complete and clear survey report, including the correct use of language and the logical arrangement of content. 2. Teaching Difficult Points How to guide students to think deeply about the impact of digital life, and express their unique and in - depth opinions in the survey report. Helping students overcome difficulties in communication during the survey, such as dealing with refusals from interviewees or unclear answers. Teaching students to use appropriate language to describe data trends and make objective conclusions in the report. 1. Vocabulary Digital devices: smartphone, tablet, laptop, desktop computer, smartwatch Online activities: online shopping, online learning, playing online games, watching videos online, chatting on social media Digital operations: download, upload, click, browse, search, update 2. Sentence Patterns Opinions: I think digital devices bring us a lot of convenience. In my view, spending too much time on digital devices is harmful to our eyes. From my perspective, online learning has become an important way of education. Survey questions: How many hours do you spend on your smartphone every day? What is your favorite social media platform? Do you often do online shopping? If so, how often? 3. Survey Report Structure Title: Concisely summarize the main content of the survey. Introduction: Briefly introduce the purpose and background of the survey. Body: Present the survey results, including data statistics and analysis. Conclusion: Summarize the overall situation of the survey and draw main conclusions. Suggestions: Put forward reasonable suggestions based on the survey results. 教学过程 1. Lead - in (5 minutes) Show some pictures of people using digital devices in different scenarios, such as a person shopping online, a student studying with an e - book, and a family watching a movie on a smart TV. Ask students: "What can you see in these pictures? How do digital devices affect our lives?" Encourage students to share their ideas freely. This can arouse students' interest in the topic of digital life and lead to the project of a mini - survey on digital life. 2. Knowledge Presentation (10 minutes) Vocabulary teaching: Teach the key vocabulary related to digital life on the PPT, and explain the meanings and usages of new words with examples. For example, when teaching "download", show a picture of a person downloading an app on a phone and say "You can download many interesting apps on your smartphone." Then let students read the words aloud several times to strengthen memory. Sentence pattern practice: Write some useful sentence patterns for expressing opinions and making surveys on the blackboard. Divide students into pairs, and ask them to practice making sentences with these patterns. For instance, one student says "How often do you play online games?" and the other answers according to their own situation. Walk around the classroom to offer help and correct mistakes in time. Survey report structure introduction: Use a simple example of a survey report about students' favorite sports to show the basic structure of a survey report. Explain each part in detail, and let students understand the function and content requirements of each part. 3. Group Work (15 minutes) Divide students into groups of 4 - 5. Each group is required to design a mini - survey on digital life. First, guide students to brainstorm the aspects of digital life they want to survey, such as the usage time of digital devices, the types of online activities, or people's attitudes towards digitalization. Then, let each group design 5 - 8 survey questions. Remind students to make the questions clear, easy to answer, and cover different aspects of the selected topic. For example, if a group chooses to survey the usage of social media, their questions could be "What is your favorite social media platform?", "How many times a day do you check your social media accounts?", "Do you think social media has a positive or negative impact on your life?" After that, each group selects a leader to organize the group members to discuss and finalize the survey questions. The teacher walks around the classroom, participates in students' discussions, and provides guidance and suggestions. 4. Data Collection (If possible, 5 minutes in class; otherwise, assign as homework) If time allows in class, let students exchange their survey questions with another group. Each student in the group interviews one student from the other group according to the survey questions. Remind students to be polite during the interview and record the answers carefully. If there is not enough time, assign the data collection as homework. Require students to interview at least 5 people (family members, neighbors, or classmates) outside of class according to their group's survey questions, and fill in the survey forms. 5. Data Analysis and Report Writing Guidance (5 minutes) Teach students some simple data analysis methods, such as counting the number of people who choose each option in a multiple - choice question, calculating the percentage, and finding the most popular choice. For example, if a question is "What is your favorite online activity? A. Online shopping B. Online learning C. Playing online games D. Watching videos online", students can count the number of people who choose each option, and then calculate the percentage of each option. Guide students on how to write the survey report based on the data they collected. Explain that in the body part, they should use graphs (such as bar charts or pie charts) or tables to show the data clearly, and describe the data trends in words. In the conclusion part, they should summarize the main findings of the survey, and in the suggestions part, they can put forward some reasonable suggestions based on the conclusions. 6. Conclusion and Homework Assignment (5 minutes) Summarize the key points of this class, including the vocabulary, sentence patterns, and the process of conducting a mini - survey on digital life. Assign homework: Each group needs to complete the data analysis and write a complete survey report. The report should be at least 150 words, including all parts of the survey report structure. They can use pictures or graphs to make the report more vivid. In the next class, each group will present their survey report to the whole class. 教学反思 After this class, I will reflect on the following aspects: Whether the teaching objectives have been achieved. Check if students have mastered the key vocabulary and sentence patterns, and if they can use them correctly in the survey process. Evaluate if students can complete the survey report writing task according to the requirements, which reflects their understanding of the survey report structure and language application ability. The effectiveness of the teaching methods. Consider whether the lead - in activities can successfully arouse students' interest and smoothly introduce the topic. Evaluate if the group work can promote students' cooperation and thinking ability, and if the guidance on data analysis and report writing is clear enough for students to follow. Students' participation. Observe if all students actively participate in classroom activities, especially in group discussions and interviews. Analyze the reasons for students' low participation if there are such cases, and think about how to improve students' enthusiasm in future teaching. Difficulties encountered in teaching. Summarize the difficulties students have in understanding knowledge or conducting the survey, such as difficulties in designing questions, collecting data, or analyzing data. Based on these difficulties, adjust teaching strategies and provide more targeted guidance in future classes. 2 / 37 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
