Material Detail

Lights, Camera, Language

Lights, Camera, Language

For the practice and enhancement of oral language skills on various levels, new digital video technology was introduced in an advanced German conversation class to create a German language news report. Students researched their topics on-line, interviewed speakers on camera, wrote and recorded their own narration, and digitized and edited their footage -- all in German. This web site presents a description and the results of the project. An excellent resource for people interested in the effective use of video in language learning.

Excellent as a project description and as a collection of examples to motivate students involved in similar projects. An update and a set of tips for instructors would be welcome additions.
