We are used to teaching and learning in classrooms, but it does not mean that many of those lessons taught are effective. In other words, we may have a lot of information in our short-term memory, but not much moves to the long-term one
.
What about making an effort to make some lessons more meaningful? The task of the teacher would be to creat learning experiences by having some lessons in different locations.
1. Supermarket
A language teacher may go to the supermarket and teach many words. For example: fruits, vegetables, groceries and many others and it would be only about food. What about teaching the words: aisle, stand, or cashier?
A math teacher may teach about addition or substraction using the products we add to the cart or the ones we decide not to buy.
