• Watch the video and complete listening for gist tasks (choose the best headline and summary).
• Watch again and complete listening for detail tasks (True/False/Not Given and a “Find the difference” correction task).
• Take part in a structured for/against debate using useful phrases.
• Play interactive games, including a Top-5 quiz, a Genially AI Detective game (AI or human?), and an AI Mystery Grid riddle.
