April 18th lesson
Dear students,
The course grading criteria has slightly changed. Your portfolio will now be worth 50 points. This should contain the 10 lectures that you watched and studied at home (download below), the work you did in the first lesson, and any other class work that your teacher asks you to include.
Homework portfolio: You are required to keep a record of listening activities that you do outside of class. These activities should take up at least twenty hours of your time. You may listen to TED talks lectures, for example, or news stories, documentaries or movies. What you choose to listen to is up to you. Your portfolio should include notes, questions and answers, and a summary and a comment for each assignment. At the end of the semester, please hand in your portfolio to your teacher.
