Examples of good practice

Peer feedback in Google Docs

Each student sends a draft of their work to a colleague, who makes comments and suggestions for improvement in the document. It is best suited for couples or small groups, as this ensures sufficient time and attention for detailed feedback. This activity develops critical thinking and the ability to objectively evaluate other people's work, and at the same time it allows the student to get new ideas for improvement from the perspective of the recipient of feedback. Functionalities of Google Docs, such as side comments or tracking of changes, make the process transparent and enable feedback at a later stage.

Collaborative research in Padlet

Students add sources, links, and short descriptions to a shared digital board, creating a collective knowledge base. The activity is effective in groups of 5 to 7 students, as this creates a sufficiently rich, yet manageable collection of materials. Padlet allows for visually appealing presentation of content (cards, galleries, timelines), which further motivates students. This activity allows for practicing the skills of searching and evaluating sources, while also emphasizing the importance of sharing resources and mutual support in the learning process.

Brainstorming using the Miro tool

Students on a digital whiteboard brainstorm ideas together and organize them into categories. It is recommended for medium-sized groups to ensure sufficient ideas and clarity. Tools like Miro allow for visualization of ideas using "sticky notes", colors, and links, which facilitates group structuring. The activity encourages creative thinking, collaboration, and rapid suggestion-making, and the teacher can take on the role of facilitator to guide the group toward the goal. An added value is that the boards can be saved and reopened, so students can reflect and add to ideas even after the session is over.
