You should prepare 2 presentations:
  • one based on text with some short videos and photos;
  • the second one should be a video, e.g. a TED presentation with your introduction and questions to discuss.
 
You  moderate  your presentations (ask questions, comment on your friends’ opinions). Your moderation will be evaluated.
 
Moreover, each week you read/watch and comment on/ discuss your colleagues’ presentations (at least 6).

Send me your presentations at least a week before the date of their publication.  

(We publish presentations on Mondays).
Your presentation should:
1.    consist of text (ca.400 words).
2.    include photos, videos (only in English).
3.    be interesting to read, watch and comment on. If I do not like the topic, I can ask you to prepare a new presentation.
4.    be submitted in the Word file or the Google docs (no PDF files).
5.    include the sources used.
6.    not offend anyone’s beliefs.

Ignorance of the rules will result in the course failure.

Attention!

I will not evaluate any presentation sent to me after the deadline.  
I will not accept any excuses.
I will not accept plagiarism.

What constitutes plagiarism? 

Each week of our work finishes on Sunday at 11:59 p.m.


Below you will find a few examples how to moderate your presentation:
 
Attention!
 
If you do  not send me your presentation for evaluation, you can still publish it; nevertheless,  it is risky as I can object to its content and language and you will prepare it again. 
In such a situation the mistakes influence the grade.

Week 8 [28.11-04.12] The phenomenon of bilingualism

By
In times of globalisation contact with other languages is inevitable. It is estimated that more than half of the population is bilingual. The increase in migration, intensive economic exchange and fast developing tourism industry force people to learn foreign languages. Mass media and modern means of transport enable us to spread languages even faster. International marriages have never been more popular. All of these factors contribute to the growing number of bilingual people. Among them, there is one particular group which seems to benefit the most. They are called simultaneous bilinguals: people who acquire two languages from birth. http://images.huffingtonpost.com/2015-05-21-1432234752-9588891-Bilingual_kid.jpg According to many studies, simultaneous bilingual children seem to exceed monolingual children in tasks requiring abstract thinking, executive control and greater attention. In addition to having a huge impact on the human mind, bilingualism also influences emotion...
