4. Direct students to consult their notes, textbooks, and other resources make concise notes for the subtopic assigned to them.

5. Collect each groups notes, and assemble them together under the Visualiser, digital presenter, document camera.

6. Project the image of the completed notes, discuss as a class, and direct all students to copy completed notes.
