For the last 5 months we've been working on a semester long video project at the language center. The idea is that one group from each of the 27 classes should submit a video about Bengkulu (ideally tying in some area of expertise from their field of study). We wanted to show students that English has some real life, communicative purpose for them outside of the classroom, and also to promote tourism in Bengkulu province.
Most of the students had no video making experience and have little opportunity to use technology in general. After months of blood, sweat, tears, bribes to customs officials, polite reminders, cajoling, playing the bad cop, and complete internet and computer failures, all of the videos are finally finished. So check out the playlist and feel free to comment on any of the videos.
