Group Facilitation

I think a group facilitation is not only very useful but also very interesting assignment. This assignment helps the students understand a deeper meaning of a certain topics appointed by the teacher. First, the teacher ask to make a group of four to five people. Each students in the group have to do the research and make a discussion questions for the classmates. This is why I think this assignment is very important in this course. All the classmates respond to other classmates' questions. Some of the students are very enthusiastic in answering all the questions and I think it is very nice to know that all of them are interested in the topics. I remember one girl answered to one of my group's question, and even me and group were the one who make the questions, her answer were very clear and add up current understanding at that time. The question that I remember was about 'How is the movie depicts Hong Kong urban lifestyle?' And her answer not what I had in mind. She mentioned the first scene about the when the two main actors were met in electronic shops, it portrayed that the movie was very modern. Also the use of coding, camera, and lots of handphone usage in that movie was very clear that the movie wanted the audiences to feel like it happened in certain modern era.
