いいラジオばんぐみ、わるいラジオばんぐみは どんな ばんぐみですか。

Before we start the podcasting project, let's put some ideas together. To do so, please answer to the following questions to this post by 11:00 AM on Monday, Oct. 30. Click on the "Comments" link at the end of this post and post your answers.

Questions

1. What constitutes a "good" (or "bad") podcast (radio program)?
2. What would you like to know about life at an American university if you were a Japanese student who would listen to your podcast? (or what would you like to know about life at a Japanese university if some Japanese college students were making similar podcasts?)

There will be no in-class quiz on Monday, Oct. 30. Instead, your answers to the two questions above will be counted as quiz (10 pts).

ポッドキャストプロジェクト：ラジオばんぐみ

みなさん、

ポッドキャストプロジェクト（Podcasting Project）をしましょう！

Goals: You will have the chance to...

1. Actively express your opinions to a real Japanese audience
2. Consider first-hand how big media operates and presents information
   

Audience:
The worldwide audience of Japanese-speakers interested in New York, Columbia University, or life at an American university – and also your classmates, of course

Content:
We will create radio programs about life at Columbia University using an interview format

Steps:

1. Discuss what constitutes a good podcast (radio program).
2. Everyone will decide on the categories that we will use to critique our own and each other’s podcasts.
3. Keeping #1 in mind, we will form groups of 2-3 people and create podcasting scripts. The shows will be in the form of interviews. Everyone will write scripts that should be of interest to a Japanese university student curious about life at an American university.
4. We practice reading the scripts in a natural manner. (If it is necessary, students should memorize their scripts. The point is that the scripts must NOT sound stilted and unnatural).
5. Record the podcasts (We will be using “Wimba,” which is on Courseworks).
6. Listen to your classmates’ podcasts and make comments. (Examples: Grammar mistakes; Boring; etc.).
7. Correct and improve the scripts.
8. Record a second time.
9. We post the podcasts online, and allow a worldwide audience to listen.
10. Listen to the podcasts created by you and your classmates; critique them.
    

はじめまして。

You're learning Japanese---how do you feel? Excited? Happy? Frustrated? Overwhelmed? Whatever you feel, I hope we'll share it together using blogs.

Learning a language means not only taking a course, but also transforming yourself---becoming able to communicate with someone whose language you didn't understand before. The process involves your experience, feelings, and everything you do in and outside the class. This blog links to your blogs and your classmates' so that you can see what others think and feel about their learning process or just simply what they're up to.

I'm interested in your experience as a language learner: what you feel, how you see it, what you think about it, etc. Please feel free to write anything you want. You are encouraged to express yourself about any topics in any language. The sky is the limit!

1) Go to http://www.blogger.com to open your blog.

1. Select "Settings" from the top tabs. Click "Formatting" and select "Universal" for "Encoding" so that you can type Japanese.
