Get an early start: Visit unused clips linked to our class page. They are fun to explore. You will create your project largely with Netscape Composer. Netscape Composer is very easy to use and is on all campus computers. You can ask any lab assistant or your instructor for help. Your project should include the following, and resemble a simplified version of the basic Progetto Italica organization and design: • clip of choice • transcription of clip in Italian • translation of this into English • one listening/ aural comprehension exercise • one copy of the transcription with a grammar aspect (of choice) highlighted • a set of grammar (min. 2) exercises to accompany the highlighted forms. • mini cultural readings connected to the topic of your clip. (2 x 100 words) page 3 3 • a lexicon or brief vocabulary activity for pre-reading (min. 10 parole) • a comprehension check for post-reading • an output/speaking exercise (set of 3-4 discussion questions) • a writing exercise for (dialogue or essay) for fellow classmates/users. • links other Internet sites that you find interesting and pertinent to your topic (“Approfondimenti”) (min. 3) • additional illustrations pertinent to your subject (min. 1) Basic research for main cultural topic can be done with search engines online or more traditional paper research materials. * Please remember that cutting and pasting from original sites is considered plagiarism. You must paraphrase cultural information and cite your source in a footnote to your text. Important Dates: 1. Choice of clip, partner and general outline (Week 5): 20 febbraio 2. Mid-term oral interview and detailed outline of project (Week 8):7-8 marzo 3. Complete draft of work in progress (Week 12): 2 aprile 4. Final Presentation (Week 15): 28 aprile, 18,00-20,00. 102 DeBartolo Hall page 4 4 Appendix C Timeline for student online webpage project: Weeks 1-15 : One or more Progetto Italica units per week as base model for project, through which students become familiar with their task. Week 1: As part of syllabus and course outline, students learn about the project (Project Guide) and are invited to visit the PI site extensively to be sure they accept the responsibility of this requirement. Week 5: Pairs established and choice of video clip decided. Week 8: Mid-term oral interviews with instructor. Weeks 9, 11, 13: Friday computer laboratory classes for student-student and student-instructor collaboration in target language with web-page projects displayed on screen. Week 13: Draft of primary reading text and all main pages “in-the-making.” Week 15: Final presentation night & Follow-up lab day for peer editing and exchange page 5 5
