Our inquiry 本课探究

Is it still necessary to memorise things when we can find them online?

Textbook: p. 40. Class time: 40 minutes. Your products: an evidence sheet, a short debate and a revised position.

A Before class 课前准备

Choose an initial position: we still need to memorise some things / we can reduce what we memorise. Collect one everyday example. Bring the source if you use a published claim. You may revise your position later.

B Define the question 明确辩题 5 minutes

Read both sides of the table in 4b. Does “we need to memorise things” mean “we must memorise everything”? Does “online information exists” mean “we can always reach and understand it”? Explain the difference.

For this debate, memorise means learn something well enough to recall it without looking. Discuss what deserves that effort. Avoid turning the other side’s position into an extreme claim.

C Compare three situations 比较三种情境 8 minutes

Decide what to remember, what to check, and why. Begin alone, then compare with a partner.

 

Choose your strongest example. What would happen if the internet were unavailable? What would happen if the remembered information were out of date?

Build and challenge evidence 建立并质疑证据

D Prepare an evidence sheet 准备证据单 10 minutes

Write three reasons for your position. Add an example to each. For one reason, collect a small piece of real classroom evidence or use a named source. A made-up percentage is not evidence.

 

Optional classroom observation 可选课堂观察

Choose five multiplication facts your partner already knows. Time one attempt from memory and one attempt using a multiplication table. Half the pairs use the table first. Record errors as well as time. Compare only what actually happened.

 

This is a small classroom illustration, not proof about every learner or online search. Familiarity, task difficulty and practice order can affect the result. If no observation is completed, label your example as an example; do not invent data.

Prepare a fair challenge 准备合理质询

Write the strongest point the other side may make. Answer it with a reason or a limitation, rather than repeating your opinion.

They may argue ____________________. I accept __________, but in the case of __________, ____________________.
