1. Think about how you can communicate effectively
2. Work towards becoming an autonomous learner

2. Objectives
By using Japanese language and other modalities (tone of your voice, body language, pictures, color, font etc.), you will have the chance to:
1. Communicate with the Japanese speaking audience by actively expressing and exchanging your views, thoughts, and opinions
2. Reflect on the communication you have had and think about how you can improve your future communication

3. Audience:
  • The worldwide audience of Japanese-speakers and learners of Japanese
  • Classmates

4. Content:
· You are free to choose the topic, but it must be thought provoking, have a clear message, and appeal to the target audience
(Examples)
· Your opinions about a social or global issue
·Issues come up in day to day life that you find questionable
· Cultural comparison and experiences
5. Steps:
  1. Form groups (three or more people), give a name to your group, and brainstorm ideas.
  2. Discuss what constitutes a good podcast or TV program.
  3. Keeping #2 and your audience in mind, write a proposal.
  4. Revise your proposal based on your classmates’ comments.
  5. Write scripts and submit the draft.
  6. Make comments with each other based on the evaluation categories.
  7. Correct and improve the scripts and then submit the final script (Tentative Due: March 7th), and submit the final podcast movie(Tentative Due: April 12th)
  8. Think about what you should do to make the target audience watch your podcast movie and execute the action.
  9. Communicate with the Japanese speaking audiences who have left comments on your podcast movie.
  10. Conduct final evaluation
