الِاسْتِعْدَادُ لِعَرْضٍ جَمَاعِيٍّ
عَلِيٌّ: مَوْضُوعُ عَرْضِنَا تَقْلِيلُ اسْتِهْلَاكِ الْوَرَقِ فِي الْمَدْرَسَةِ. لِنُحَدِّدْ مَسْؤُولِيَّةَ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنَّا.
سَلْمَى: أَعْدَدْتُ رَسْمًا بَيَانِيًّا لِنَتَائِجِ الِاسْتِبْيَانِ، وَأُرِيدُ أَنْ أَشْرَحَ مَا قَالَهُ الطُّلَّابُ.
عُمَرُ: وَأَنَا سَأَقْتَرِحُ الْحُلُولَ. لَكِنْ وَضَعْتُ الرَّسْمَ نَفْسَهُ فِي قِسْمِي لِتَوْضِيحِ سَبَبِ اخْتِيَارِهَا.
عَلِيٌّ: إِذَنْ سَيَتَكَرَّرُ الرَّسْمُ. يَا سَلْمَى، مَا الَّذِي سَتَشْرَحِينَهُ مِنْ خِلَالِ هَذِهِ النَّتَائِجِ؟
سَلْمَى: سَأُقَارِنُ بَيْنَ عَادَاتِ الطُّلَّابِ فِي اسْتِخْدَامِ الْوَرَقِ، وَأُبَيِّنُ الْعَادَةَ الْأَكْثَرَ شُيُوعًا بَيْنَهُمْ.
عُمَرُ: هَذَا مُنَاسِبٌ. أَحْتَاجُ إِلَى الْإِشَارَةِ لِهَذِهِ الْعَادَةِ فَقَطْ قَبْلَ شَرْحِ الْحُلُولِ الْمُقْتَرَحَةِ.
عَلِيٌّ: أَمَّا الرَّسْمُ فَهُوَ فِي قِسْمِ سَلْمَى فَقَطْ، وَيُشِيرُ عُمَرُ إِلَى نَتِيجَتِهِ دُونَ تَكْرَارِهِ.
عُمَرُ: مُتَّفِقُونَ، سَأَحْذِفُ الرَّسْمَ مِنْ قِسْمِي وَأُبْقِي الْأَمْثِلَةَ الْعَمَلِيَّةَ الَّتِي تُوَضِّحُ الْحُلُولَ.
سَلْمَى: وَمَاذَا سَتُقَدِّمُ أَنْتَ يَا عَلِيُّ؟ نَحْتَاجُ إِلَى مُقَدِّمَةٍ تَرْبِطُ الْمَوْضُوعَ بِحَيَاتِنَا الْمَدْرَسِيَّةِ.
عَلِيٌّ: سَأَشْرَحُ الْمُشْكِلَةَ وَهَدَفَ الِاسْتِبْيَانِ، ثُمَّ أَتْرُكُ تَفَاصِيلَ النَّتَائِجِ لَكِ لِتُقَدِّمِيهَا.
عُمَرُ: مُدَّةُ الْعَرْضِ عَشْرُ دَقَائِقَ فَقَطْ. كَيْفَ نُوَزِّعُ الْوَقْتَ وَنَتْرُكُ فُرْصَةً لِأَسْئِلَةِ الزُّمَلَاءِ؟
سَلْمَى: دَقِيقَتَانِ لِلْمُقَدِّمَةِ، وَثَلَاثٌ لِلنَّتَائِجِ، وَثَلَاثٌ لِلْحُلُولِ، وَالدَّقِيقَتَانِ الْبَاقِيَتَانِ لِلْأَسْئِلَةِ فِي النِّهَايَةِ.
عَلِيٌّ: جَيِّدٌ، وَيَجِبُ أَنْ نَرْبِطَ الْأَقْسَامَ بِجُمَلٍ قَصِيرَةٍ، حَتَّى يَكُونَ الْعَرْضُ مُتَرَابِطًا.
سَلْمَى: فِي نِهَايَةِ قِسْمِي، سَأَقُولُ إِنَّنَا نَحْتَاجُ إِلَى حُلُولٍ لِتَغْيِيرِ هَذِهِ الْعَادَةِ.
عُمَرُ: وَسَأَبْدَأُ بِقَوْلِي: بِنَاءً عَلَى هَذِهِ النَّتَائِجِ، نَقْتَرِحُ الْحُلُولَ التَّالِيَةَ لِتَقْلِيلِ اسْتِهْلَاكِ الْوَرَقِ.
سَلْمَى: أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَجْمَعَ الْأَقْسَامَ فِي مِلَفٍّ وَاحِدٍ غَدًا صَبَاحًا، إِذَا أَرْسَلْتُمَا عَمَلَكُمَا اللَّيْلَةَ.
عَلِيٌّ: سَأُرْسِلُ مُقَدِّمَتِي اللَّيْلَةَ. وَلْنَلْتَقِ غَدًا ظُهْرًا لِلتَّدْرِيبِ وَقِيَاسِ الْوَقْتِ قَبْلَ الْعَرْضِ.
عُمَرُ: وَسَأُرْسِلُ قِسْمِي أَيْضًا. إِذَا طَالَ الْعَرْضُ، يُمْكِنُنِي حَذْفُ مِثَالٍ دُونَ حَذْفِ الْفِكْرَةِ الرَّئِيسِيَّةِ.
سَلْمَى: إِذَنْ، الْمُقَدِّمَةُ لِعَلِيٍّ، وَالنَّتَائِجُ لِي، وَالْحُلُولُ لِعُمَرَ، وَنُجِيبُ جَمِيعًا عَنِ الْأَسْئِلَةِ.
عَلِيٌّ: صَحِيحٌ، وَخِلَالَ التَّدْرِيبِ نَتَأَكَّدُ مِنْ وُضُوحِ الِانْتِقَالِ بَيْنَ الْأَقْسَامِ وَعَدَمِ تَكْرَارِ الْمَعْلُومَاتِ.

Ali: Our presentation is about reducing paper use at school. Let us decide what each of us is responsible for.
Salma: I have prepared a chart of the survey results, and I want to explain what the students said.
Omar: I will suggest solutions. But I put the same chart in my section to explain why I chose them.
Ali: Then the chart will appear twice. Salma, what will you explain through these results?
Salma: I will compare the students’ paper-use habits and identify the most common habit among them.
Omar: That works. I only need to refer to that habit before explaining the proposed solutions.
Ali: As for the chart, it will appear only in Salma’s section, and Omar will refer to its finding without repeating it.
Omar: Agreed. I will remove the chart from my section and keep the practical examples that explain the solutions.
Salma: What will you present, Ali? We need an introduction that connects the topic to our school life.
Ali: I will explain the problem and the survey’s purpose, then leave the detailed results for you to present.
Omar: The presentation is only ten minutes long. How do we divide the time and leave an opportunity for classmates’ questions?
Salma: Two minutes for the introduction, three for the results, three for the solutions, and the remaining two for questions at the end.
Ali: Good. We should connect the sections with short sentences so the presentation holds together.
Salma: At the end of my section, I will say that we need solutions to change this habit.
Omar: I will begin by saying: Based on these results, we suggest the following solutions to reduce paper use.
Salma: I can combine the sections in one file tomorrow morning if you both send your work tonight.
Ali: I will send my introduction tonight. Let us meet tomorrow at noon to practise and time it before the presentation.
Omar: I will send my section too. If the presentation runs long, I can remove an example without removing the main idea.
Salma: So Ali has the introduction, I have the results, Omar has the solutions, and we all answer questions.
Ali: Correct. During practice we will check that transitions between sections are clear and information is not repeated.
