Pick a scenario which could be fictional or a real-world situation. Make sure it has connection and relevance to the video lectures your students would have watched before the class.
Prepare a list of prompting questions to facilitate discussion.
Provide necessary stationeries / tools during discussion.
Consider breaking the student cohort into groups of 5-10 people.
Introduce the case study scenario.
Allow discussion to be student-led and encourage students to use the prompting questions prepared.
Provide students with stationeries (e.g. pen, paper, board) or online tools to record key points for their discussion.
Encourage students to be flexible and creative in thinking of alternatives and options to a case problem. Do not be rigid about where the discussions naturally lead.
You can walk around the class to ensure that students are being conscious about time and re-focus group discussions, when necessary.
Note: If this activity is to be done online, use Zoom Breakout Rooms to divide student cohort into smaller discussion groups.
