I need to come up with some ideas for a large adult class (20-40 students), intermediate level. Class is 50 mins long and should get the students talking as much as possible. Role plays would be good. Any ideas of topics?

Current even discussion always works well with adult students.

Especially, related to sex or sexuality. Wink

There's a set of photocopiable books published by Penguin, titled "Pair Work" 1,2 and 3. I've used book 1 with adult beginners and found it great for promoting conversation. Our office assistant had to order them 2 or 3 times before our distributor finally found them for us, but they've been well worth the trouble.
