Having all the assessments done, these two videos by Zeitgeist might be an interesting choice for a conversation activity at our last lesson before the winter break. I'd suggest this activity for older students. We could check their general knowledge of the world they live in, inducing them to talk about 2012 major events. I would ask them to identify the public figures that appear in the video and their relevance for the year that is about to end. To finish the activity, I suggest showing the video about 2011 and ask the students to make comparisons between the two years, which one they prefer and why, and their predictions for 2013.
