Our third years recreated the events of their novel, 'The Outsiders', by posting about it on Facebook. Each student had to create their own character profile page within a closed group on Facebook. During the project we would all log on at an agreed time and post about that particular chapter (I was Mr Syme, their English teacher!).
I felt this was a great learning tool, as the students had to pay close attention to key details of the plot and demonstrate knowledge of the nuances of the novels' relationships. I plan to use it as a revision aid closer to their exam.
