Jigsaw activity on mass media and public opinion:

1. Divide the class into small groups of 4-5 students.
2. Assign each group a specific aspect of mass media and public opinion to research and present on. For example, one group can focus on the role of social media in shaping public opinion, another group can focus on the influence of television news, and so on.
3. Provide each group with resources such as articles, videos, and statistics related to their assigned aspect of mass media and public opinion.
4. Instruct each group to research their topic and prepare a short presentation summarizing their findings.
5. After the groups have had sufficient time to research and prepare, have them come together in a jigsaw format. This means that each group will have one member from each original group in their new group.
6. In their new groups, each member will take turns presenting their findings on their assigned aspect of mass media and public opinion.
7. Encourage group members to ask questions and engage in discussions about the different aspects of mass media and public opinion.
8. After all the presentations are complete, have a class discussion to reflect on the different aspects of mass media and public opinion that were presented.
9. Discuss the similarities and differences between the various aspects of mass media and public opinion, and how they collectively shape public perception and attitudes.
10. Encourage students to critically analyze the role of mass media in shaping public opinion and discuss the potential implications of this influence on society.
