SDLC 110: Learning Journal #4

[Yi Shen]

• The goal for weeks 4 and 5 is to understand and know more about Korean culture and prepare for the five minutes culture presentation. Be more familiar with formal/informal greetings, farewells and introductions. Watching teaching videos to know more conversational sentences or dialogues. 
• Resources I will use are links people shared in Diigo and some links of teaching videos from Youtube and other online resources. Watching videos, reading interesting paper, taking notes definitely will be useful and helpful for beginners like me to start a new language. Activity such as presentation helps to build cultural knowledge. Other activities such as group discussion and group work after class with classmates (practice speaking Korean and practice simple conversation).
• After these two weeks, I should be able to do simple greetings and introductions. Fluency is the key evaluative point for speaking.
