Feedback

Group 1

The preparation and debating were excellent but some groups misunderstood the purpose of the seminar mistaking it for a preparation for a group presenation rather than a presentation and discussion within the group.

There is still too much L1 (Italian) being spoken. The assessment combined both formal/individual (presentation) and informal/collaborative tasks – in the latter there was a temptation to slide into Italian. Stay in English!
