Presentation
| Stage / Time | Teacher's Activities | Students' Activities |
|---|---|---|
| Introduction 5 minutes |
Reviews the previous lesson on recycling digital devices. Asks students to mention modern technologies they have seen or used, such as smartwatches, voice assistants and online storage. | Recall previous knowledge and mention familiar digital technologies. |
| Step 1: Meaning and Examples 8 minutes |
Defines emerging technologies and explains examples, including Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, robotics, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, cloud computing, 3D printing and blockchain. | Listen, take notes and identify examples of emerging technologies from the pictures or charts provided. |
| Step 2: Uses and Benefits 8 minutes |
Explains how emerging technologies are used in education, healthcare, agriculture, transportation, business and entertainment. Discusses improved efficiency, access to information and new career opportunities. | Give examples of how emerging technologies can solve problems or improve everyday activities. |
| Step 3: Risks and Challenges 7 minutes |
Discusses privacy risks, cybersecurity threats, cost, unequal access, inaccurate AI results, electronic waste and overdependence on technology. | Identify possible risks and suggest ways to use technology safely and responsibly. |
| Step 4: Class Activity 7 minutes |
Presents situations such as a farmer monitoring soil moisture with a sensor, a student using a VR headset and a learner storing files online. Guides students to identify the relevant technologies. | Match each situation with the appropriate technology and explain one benefit and one possible risk. |
| Conclusion 5 minutes |
Summarises the lesson and asks oral questions about the meaning, examples, benefits and challenges of emerging technologies. | Answer questions and summarise important points from the lesson. |
Total Time: 40 Minutes
Board Summary
- Emerging technologies are new or rapidly developing technologies that influence how people live, learn and work.
- Examples include AI, IoT, robotics, VR, AR, cloud computing, 3D printing and blockchain.
- They are used in education, healthcare, agriculture, transportation, business and entertainment.
- Benefits include improved efficiency, better access to information and new career opportunities.
- Challenges include privacy risks, cyberattacks, cost, unequal access and electronic waste.
- Responsible use requires protecting personal information, checking information critically and following digital safety practices.
Evaluation
