Discussion question · 10 marks
Select one command word from your current subject syllabus. Design a 10-minute classroom activity that requires students to engage with this word, and explain how you would provide immediate, actionable feedback to a student who fails to meet the cognitive demand of that word. How does this specific activity link to your overall two-week scheme of work and your goal of reducing exam anxiety?
