M.I.S.O. – Motion In The Science Ocean - Erasmus+ project - Use of Powtoon, Easyclass and Mentimeter in a High School Debate using the the WSDC model

Year 2019, Volume: 13, 24 - 36, 31.08.2019

Abstract

SdDESM,
“Sociedade de Debates da Escola Secundária da Maia”, is a local school debate
society led by the actual student members, teachers and a teacher coordinator.
Its purpose is to think critically about issues in logical and unbiased ways in
order to provide solutions and debate them to find the best one, making
students love understanding all viewpoints and perspectives, but also teach
them how to criticize in a respectful and rational way. The main goal of this work
was to train high schoolers from 6 countries involved in the MISO Erasmus+
Project (Romania, Germany, Spain, Norway, Portugal, Turkey) in the World
Schools Debate Competitive Model (WSDC) skills and competences. One of the
objectives of the Erasmus+ MISO project is to attract more students to science
in general through new methodology using new ICT applications/ e-learning
tools. The students used various digital tools such as Powtoon to do tutorials
on the debate model, Easyclass to do a course (“How to debate”), and Mentimeter
for evaluation of the international debate, with the motion “This House
believes that overfishing and ocean pollution will compromise our survival on a
long term basis” that took place in Maia High Secondary School, integrated in the
Portuguese mobility in the 7th February 2019. This debate also met one of
the project competences which is understanding scientific content and foster
structured international cooperation objectives.
