3) Again, students are asked to pay attention to details but not told what details to focus on.
4) Teacher and learner roles: when I was watching this video I couldn't help thinking about these roles and I have some questions: what view of Education do you subscribe to? What theories of learning are implied in your professional practice? For example, I feel Constructivism is not present at all here.
It's very important that these spaces are provided so we can exchange ideas and grow!

1) When students are asked to listen to the conversation: what's the purpose for listening? What do students have to? What's the realistic component of this stage? Why not giving them the slips of paper before? POOR SOULS! I'm a proficient English speaker and could hardly remember TWO events!
2) Sorry to disappoint you, but this is not exactly a Gist activity, but a SEQUENCING activity, which involves some detail understanding.Besides, detail questions are asked and the gist aim is lost.
