ECA (Culture) A: ボディーランゲージ

Hello!


How are you? Today, let's look at body language (ボディーランゲージ). 

I have a video for you here about body language. It's a little long, and in English - but the words are not so important. You can even watch the video with no sound - it might be better if you turn the sound off! Let's watch this, and make some notes while we watch:


What were the body language problems you found in the video? Let's talk about them!

Take care!

ECA (Culture) A: カルチャーショック

Hello!

How are you? Today let's look at culture shock (カルチャーショック).

Here is a short video about foreign students talking about their culture shock experiences at a Japanese university. Let's watch and listen to their stories!


What do you think of their experiences? If you have been to another country, have you been surprised or shocked about what you have seen? How about by people there? 

Let's talk about these!

Take care!

Hello!



How are you? Here is a quick selection of small and short presentation posters that you made for the Speaking and Culture classes. I'm very proud of all of you for making and presenting these. Please look at these and be proud of this work! 

I really like the one above. It's great! Now here are some more: 







Aren't they great! Now here's one from my culture class. This one is about identity (自己同一性). Check this out!


I hope you enjoy these examples of student work. It's your work, and the work of your classmates! 

See you next time!
