3. Translate your findings (3 wise thoughts) from English into your own language. Use different translation tools, for example MS Word, Review��Translate��Translate Selection or Google Translate.
4. Teamwork – discuss and find the best 2-3 thoughts. Use voting tools to vote for the best thoughts for example Mentimeter, see “Annex-3-Mentimeter”.
1. Teamwork – The first member of the team reads the story and then tells the story to the next person so that the rest of the team members can't hear. The second person tells the story to the next, the latter retells and so on.
2. The story of the last person is dictated (MS Word or MS OneNote or online meeting tool) and the last version is compared with the original text. You can use your own language if the dictating feature is available in your language, or you can use audio recorder feature of MS OneNote.
3. The story text can be in English, but you can translate text into your own language and do it in your own language. The story should be related with education/trainings or learning and should not be too long.
The three sieves of Socrates
It is a story about Socrates’ three sieves known also as a Triple Filter Test
The story about the three sieves is something we can apply to our everyday lives. Before you tell a story or pass on a rumour, ask yourself whether it is true, positive or necessary.
Often, we pass on gossip we have heard to keep the conversation going or talk negatively about somebody we know.
4. Discuss what you learned from this task. Give examples how messages have been changed during passing from one to other.
5. What is the meaning of this story?
