SKETCH

Well guys, it's time to record.
my e-mail  adresses are eccicarrillo@gmail.com  or ccarrilloc@ecci.edu.co

     Some of you asked me if the sketch would have to be funny, well it is not a must, but if we talk about critics and irony we may point out that comedy would allow improvement into our formal speech.

Formal speech, well that's english.
what might you conclude after seeing the videos?
What was your favorite video?
why?

what's the best english then?
Is it funny?
why? why not?

listen to his accent(you do not have to see the whole video cuz well... it's stressful)

Do you understand?
well, let me tell you that I'm sure some of you do, and  that means...

Is this useful for you? why?

How do people in Colombia start a business?

TV news project

Lot of things to say:

20% class participation - 20% self-evaluation

First: Assessment parameters are different this term, I will give you 4 grades each week, that will be class participation.

Second: you will give a weekly self-evaluation grade  which we may add and divide with mine(attendance is a must for this one).

3. The 60 % of the grade will be divided in two activities: a video sketch and a group presentation.

The video can be individual or in groups, it must be available for week # 4, the final presentation in groups will be by the last week. 

Well guys, now you must prepare  a news report for giving in class, you must search information and bring it to class in case we had not been assigned to the lab.

You will be journalist, you'll have to create a name, logo and other elements required for an enterprise into news business. but also you are in charge of a 5 min - news bulletin. 

Bring the information as clear as possible to prepare it in class, next Monday you will have time to organize your groups, and strat working for Thursday.

Next class will be at the LAB.  

 

Reading aloud

 

Well,  this time we will read a text aloud, and we will discuss it.

 

The following texts  are for Reading in class, so then, you must choose one and print it for next Monday.
