Rationale and how this activity fits into a series of lessons: This activity fits perfectly into
a series of lessons guided towards advanced EFL/ESL students, especially as a way to help
students plan for possible future plans. The activity is also very relevant to students and helps
them deal with a real life situation in a practical manner. By limiting the teachers participation,
and having students rely on what they hear on the audio to create conversations amongst
themselves is a good way to assess multiple abilities. In other words, this is a good activity to
close an academic year or semester (or unit). In terms of listening, the extensive part focuses
on students existing knowledge. The intensive part forces students to listen carefully to try and
find the answers to not just their questions but also their peers.
