Lesson plan — What drives a person to be an attention-seeker?

Research Task: Exploring Attention-Seeking Behavior

Objective: To deepen understanding of attention-seeking behavior through independent research and present findings to the class.

Duration: 80 minutes

Task Description:

  1. Research Phase (Homework or in-class research, 45-60 minutes):

    • Students will work in groups to conduct research on the topic of attention-seeking behavior using credible internet sources.
    • Each group will be assigned one of the following aspects of attention-seeking to explore in more detail:
      • Group 1 and 4: Psychological Causes: Investigate the underlying psychological reasons why individuals seek attention. Consider influences like childhood experiences, personality traits, or mental health conditions.
      • Group 2 and 5: Impact of Social Media: Analyze how social media platforms contribute to attention-seeking behavior, providing real-life examples and statistics.
      • Group 3 and 6: Positive Aspects: Explore scenarios in which attention-seeking can lead to positive outcomes, such as increased self-confidence, motivation, or fostering creativity.
      • Group 7 and 8: Attention-Seeking in Children vs. Adults: Compare how attention-seeking behaviors differ between children and adults, and discuss the long-term impacts of these behaviors.
  2. Research Guidelines:

    • Students should gather information from at least 3 credible sources (e.g., academic journals, psychology websites, reputable news sources).
    • Groups should take notes on their findings and prepare to summarize key points for their classmates.
    • Encourage students to think critically about the information they find. Ask them to consider bias, credibility, and relevance of the sources they use.
  3. Presentation Phase (In-Class, 5 minutes per group):

    • Each group will present their findings to the class in a 5-minute presentation.
    • Presentations should include:
      • A clear summary of their research topic and key findings.
      • Examples and/or visuals to illustrate points (e.g., statistics, infographics, relevant images) could be sent via telegram into the common group.
      • Reflection: At least one minute on what they learned that was surprising or thought-provoking.
    • Q&A Session: After each presentation, the class will have an opportunity to ask questions and discuss the findings briefly.

Homework:

  • Write an essay on attention-seeking behavior and submit it via Google Classroom. The essay should include your reflections on how your understanding has evolved after conducting your research and listening to your classmates.
