I have 4 English groups in Hagabergs folkhögskola and we're using this Google Classroom:
English for B1-B2 users 2017-8 (@hagaberg.org account required)
Hopefully there'll be lots of problems and mistakes that lead to learning which for us equals success.Many factors prevent us from solving problems and perhaps the biggest is that we fail to actually see what the problem really is - hence the Einstein quote.
Instead of rushing to offer solutions, our first English exercise is to describe some problems and then look at them to see if we can redefine them or get to the root of them.
We are collecting problems to work on: Problems. There's an assignment linked to it in our Google classroom: Redefining and solving problems where everyone chooses someone else's problem and tries to redefine it and offer possible solutions.
A reading exercise is included in this topic based on an article by Sabina Nawaz in Harvard Business Review: The Problem with Saying “Don’t Bring Me Problems, Bring Me Solutions”
