If it is your
first time to visit a website spend some time "looking around", getting an idea
of how it is organised, what it contains.
Decide on
something specific you want to do: watch a video, read an article, a
combination of this related to the same topic etc..
Before you start,
use any images there are or your own knowledge or imagination to make
predictions about the content and also the language of the material you are
going to examine.
Make a one line general summary after the first
reading / listening.
Read / listen again in more detail. You might want to
use different options: pictures, hypertext, videos, text, captions, online
dictionary etc. to help you understand more fully.
Make some notes on
what you found interesting: think about the vocabulary, expressions, tenses and
other grammar aspects and how they relate to the purpose of the
material.
Try something similar? Write
a similar text? Report back to your teacher or class or to us via email to put
the language you have seen into practice. |
