Task: News and Current Events

I have posted earlier about a task here related to news and current events which is a group task and quite time consuming. Even though the students love it as it allows them to get creative, sometimes we need a simpler version. Here is a task that the learners are supposed to work on individually. The competence aims fulfilled, and the criteria required to assess this task are also included.

Hvordan kan vi spore endringer i en tekst.

Det er lettere selvsagt for elevene å se at lærere har gjort endringer i en elevtekst når det en lærer har skrevet står i en annen farge. Mange lærere bytter farge på skriften hver gang de skriver noe i en elevtekst. Det kan være ganske tungvint, men fret not, det finnes en snarvei. Du kan nemlig spore endringer i tekster. Jeg har erfart at det er ikke så mange som vet om denne funksjonen, så her kommer oppskriften. Lykke til.
