  • What are the dangers mentioned?

• Then take 14 minutes and work in groups to complete the tasks below: 
  • Group 1: With the help of your notes find the main things mentioned in the talk and use key-words to report them. Then use WordArt, a Web 2.0 tool, to make a word cloud with these key-words.
  • Group 2: With the help of your notes write an article meant to be posted in your eTwinning blog so that your partners can be informed about that discussion. Use a shared Google word processor to collaborate with the other members of the group.

  • Group 4: Have a look at your notes. Find information about alcohol addiction on the internet. Compare the addiction discussed in the talk with the one to alcohol. Use PowerPoint to draw a Venn diagram which will show the similarities and the differences of these two addictions. If you don’t know how to do so, watch the following tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iXip0k0ByM
