Talk Show, Take#2 (June 11/13)
You will work in the same groups you did during our first talk shows (week#14). Topics should be posted to the band by June 10 and include an overview, vocabulary words, questions, and links. Talk shows should last 5~7 minutes/person and participants should try to evenly divide ‘talk time’. Two participants should audio record the discussion, just in case there’s a technical issue.

Once your recording is posted, please (actually) listen to your own group and write self-feedback about your language usage, speaking style and group dynamics. Be as specific as possible. Was there anything different from the previous talk show? These comments can be posted on the Band post or emailed to Jeff at bufslebow@gmail.com
Due: June 16, 11:58 pm

Vocabulary Quiz (June 17/18)
A short Quiz based on vocabulary from the EGL113 Quizlet.


Selfie Videos  (June 17/18)

Either alone or in groups of 2-3, you will record video of yourselves answering three questions.
  • Questions#1 and #2 will come from discussion questions we've covered during the semester.
  • Question#1 you can choose beforehand and practice. Question#2 will be selected for you by Jeff.
  • Question#3 will be a totally new question that we have not covered in class.
Answers to each question should last 1~2 minutes / person.
Please sign up by June 10 to indicate if you’re doing this alone or with partner(s) and what your Question#1 is.
