Many ways to share what we find
ICT P4 Term 1, Theme 1: pp. 38–41
GoalName different ways to share findings and say which one fits an audience.
New words
findings · what we have found out from our dataaudience · the people who will read, watch or listenreport · to tell others clearly what you found out
Explanation
After collecting and analysing data, researchers tell other people what they found. There are many ways to report. A published article or a blog tells the story in writing. An interview lets a person answer questions. A TV programme shows pictures and voices. Other ways are digital messages: an email, a text message, or a video chat. Many websites for sharing are meant for older users, so a child of your age does not open an account alone and always asks a teacher or a family member first. The best way depends on the audience. A long article suits people who want details. A short message suits a quick answer.

Worked examples
Mariam’s class found out that many children like football. For the head teacher, they write a short email. For younger children, they act it out in a short talk.
Karim wants to hear a farmer explain how dates are harvested. He chooses an interview, because the farmer’s own words are the best source.
Jana wants to tell her aunt in Alexandria a quick piece of news. A text message with an adult’s help is enough. She would not write a long article for that.
Class activity
Report roulette. Write five ways to report on separate papers. Write five audiences on other papers: the head teacher, a friend, a grandparent, younger children, a newspaper reader. Pick one of each at random and discuss with a partner whether they fit. If not, which way would you choose, and why?
Practice
1
Name three ways researchers report their findings.
For example an article, an interview and a TV programme (also a blog or an email).
2
You want to hear a baker’s own words about making bread. Which way is best?
An interview.
3
Which two pictures show digital ways to send a short report? Say the letters.
A (the email) and C (the phone for a text message).
4
Why does a child not open a social-media account alone?
Those sites are meant for older users. A child asks a teacher or family member first.
