Activity 2 : Select a film session with two other people
- Identify the criteria that allow you to make a choice: (e.g. film releases, interest, budget, screening schedule, mobility);
- Adapt these criteria to each participant;
- Collect information on films that match the different criteria;
- Make a list of films and screenings corresponding to the criteria (from most to least preferred);
- Consult and choose;
- Make a case for your choice;
- Make a diagram showing the stages of the choice;
- Write a sales pitch.
- Analysing and processing information
- Ongoing cinema programme - access to computer;
- Traffic-Mobility Plan;
- Budget of 10 euros per person (transport and screening);
- A blank sheet of paper for feedback + markers
The activity consists of reporting on the process used to make a choice among several people and writing the arguments for the choice in a document (diagram, table).
This activity is done in teams of 3 or 4 people.
A time for feedback is planned.
Each team presents its methodology for responding to the assignment.
1.In a brainstorming session, the trainer can introduce the activity by discussing with the participants the issue of choice : what is choice? how does one make a choice? on the basis of what criteria or what information?
2.The trainer presents:
- The objective of the activity: to make a diagram showing the stages of the choice and to write the argument;
- The trainer distributes the sources of information (cinema newspapers, or websites...).
- The trainer asks collectively how to make a choice: how, how to construct criteria...
- Each participant or team gets to work and creates their own diagram.
- The trainer asks each team to present their work (method, poster).
- The trainer suggests that everyone assess themselves using the indicator grid.
- The trainer launches a discussion on the interest of the activity and the quality of the criteria and the concept of consultancy.
- How did you feel about this work?
- What is the point of doing this activity?
- How did you go about it? How did you carry out your information search and make a choice?
- To what other situation, especially in the context of a workstation, can this information processing activity be compared?
