The teacher acts as a news anchor or plays a professional news intro jingle.

• Teacher: "Breaking news! A major breakthrough in Singapore has just changed heart surgery forever. No more knives, just tiny robots. Can anyone guess what they are called?"

• Students: ...............................

• Goal: To spark curiosity and activate prior knowledge about robotics and healthcare.

Since this news item compares new technology with old methods, the teacher facilitates a brief oral discussion:

• Question: "What comes to mind when you think of heart surgery?"

• Students: .........................

• Teacher: "Now, what if it was just a simple injection of AI-controlled bots?"

The teacher provides slips of paper with the three main elements of a news story (Headline/Lead, Detail, Source). As the teacher reads a short summary, students must arrange the slips in order.

1. Lead (The Hook): ...............................

2. Detail: ...............................

3. Source: ...............................

Triggers critical thinking by asking: "The AI makes thousands of decisions per second. Do you trust a machine more than a human doctor?"

• The class is divided into two sides: Pro-Technology and Cautious Skeptics.
