10 Design Your Own Product

This game aims to have students describe a new and original object in details.

Materials and Preparation
Sheets of paper
As a preparation, the teacher asks each group to have a sheet of paper to make notes.

Procedure
1 Divide the class into four or five groups depending on the size of the class.
2 Ask them to imagine that they are going to design a new product that would take on marketing soon
and they are required to come up with an exclusive product such as an item of clothing or a household
appliance. It is also possible for them to add some variations on a product that they know very well.
3 After having a consensus on the product, have the groups write detailed information about it. While
writing about the original product, ask them to take into account the following questions:
• How is it made?
• What functionality does it provide?
• What problems can it solve?
• How much does it cost?
• What advantages does it present?
• Why is it superior to other products?
• Who is it intended for?
4 Monitor and guide them while they are carrying out the task.
5 Afterwards, have each group read the information about their original product. Have the other groups
listen to it and decide on which product they would be most willing to have and explain the reasons.
6 Have students give a big round of applause for the most popular product.
