Before conducting my artifact 3:
Goals:
- Learn phrases related to restaurants
- Learn how to order
- Be familiar with words that will be said in a Korean restaurant
Tasks:
- Based on previous experiences to Korean restaurants, I kind of new what should be said when you first enter and make eye contact with an employee.
- I would ask friends what they say when going to a restaurant
- I am going to write down the information into my notes
- I need to learn vocabulary related to food since there are so many food options available
- I need to understand the grammar in asking the questions.
- I need to learn phrases related to restaurants and ordering
- create a conversation with the phrases
Evaluation of success:
To evaluate the success of the artifact, I need to judge whether the phrases have been pronounced correctly. I will be asking friends to listen to the recording to ensure that it sounds right. If it doesn't, then I'll get them to tell me what was wrong. Then I would go back and fix what was wrong. I have to ensure that the conversation is culturally appropriate such as it is in the formal form and is polite and is appropriately said in a tone that is clear and acceptable. Recording is free of any grammatical errors.
After finishing my artifact:
While it would have been ideal to do the artifact at a Korean restaurant, I didn't really have time to do so. Therefore I had a conversation with a friend and made it seem like I was speaking at a restaurant. The recording posted is after several tries. I had so much trouble with saying "I ate well". For me the problem was that I kept messing up the pronunciation because of a reflex that I didn't intend to do. I would say meog ess instead of meog eoss. But the final recording is free of any grammatical errors, phrases are pronounced accurately, the tone is clear, and is in the formal form. Throughout the recording, how I said it was polite but when I said excuse me, it kind of came off as being aggressive which should be polite. Therefore that's one little issue with the recording but other than that, the tone is acceptable.
