Teaching and Learning Procedures

engage in the introduction by making reference to the notes they
created in Activity 1.1.

with familiar examples like the word Google. Explain how these
words or phrases were coined to represent new items or concepts,
and how they have gained widespread recognition and use.

how newly formed phrases can be catchy, memorable, and original,
making them ideal for branding, advertising, or expressing novel
ideas.
4. Investigate how coined terms frequently reflect advances in
technology, popular culture, or socio-economic developments.
