Dear Dr. Brody

I think the good points of using the idea pools activity are:-

- it is fun
- everyone in the class can participate, connect and share
their own ideas
- it can be applied to any kind of subject and can categorise
groups of students based on their own interests

It would be very useful for my classroom because,

- I can use it to plan activities for each lesson
- it can be used to measure or pre-assess the basic knowledge
of each student in my classroom

Dear Dr. Brody and all friends,

The idea pool activity is very good idea for teachers and students in
many aspects. First, the idea pool help the teacher get to know the
students' personality and and their attitude which is definitely help
the teacher categorise the level of their knowledge to put them in the
right group interest. Secondly, during the activity, the students will
be interacting among themselves which is help them exchange their
ideas that can't be right or wrong answers. Finally, the idea pool
help the students participate more, which make them understand their
subject better.

I will apply the idea pool after I give my students a case study or
asked them some questions that is about what I want them to learn and
let them explore their idea among themselves.

I hope you will not disappointed with my answer.

Love
Dang
