2. Procedure
Phase one: The students participate in a forum by answering some questions about how technology is used in their profession, so
that, in teams, they do brainstorm ideas of a new invention that could facilitate their professional activities and tasks. Then, as a
team, SS select the best idea and create a slide presentation to introduce the general features of the new technological product and
present it in an oral presentation.
Phase two: SS produce a text about the new technological product they invented, describing what it is, how it works, and why it is
useful in the profession and present a “Shark Tank video clip”, with the aim of convincing a group of investors to buy their product, or
a group of professionals to use it.
