How to get BONUS POINTS in my class

Hi everyone,

I promised a couple weeks ago that I would tell you about how to get bonus points in my class. Here is the way to do it.

If you go to our textbook's website (CLICK HERE), you will see a list that says "Series Resources". In that list, click "World Link 2 Student Site". Look for the link marked "Quiz," and click on it. You will see a list of quizzes for each unit. Click on each unit's quiz, complete the quiz, and e-mail the results to me. Even if your score is not great, I will see that you did make the effort to do it. I will give you one point for every quiz you complete, to a maximum of 10 points. These quizzes are good practice for your midterm exam, too!

If you have any problems accessing the textbook's website, please contact me. You can talk to me in class or email me your concerns.

Cheers!

Unit 4: Social trends - is society changing?

Last week in class, we talked about social trends - new, popular ways of thinking. In the PPT below, you can see the results from our class for each question we asked. In the 2F class, 16 students did the survey.



Now, compare the 2F class's results to the collated results of ALL my students. A TOTAL of 95 students did this survey last week.



Your blog post this week:
Compare the results of our survey. Do you see any trends in your generation's ideas for society? Do you think Korean (and Chinese) society is changing? Are there any traditions that will continue?
Please write at least 50 words (5-6 sentences).

See you next week!

A little break...

Hi everyone,

How was your Chuseok? Mine was very busy. It was SO busy that I didn't get to finish the results of our "social trends" survey last week. This means that YOU DON'T NEED TO MAKE A BLOG COMMENT THIS WEEK. Your next blog comment must be finished before 1pm Thursday, October 15th.

This little break is my Chuseok gift to you. ^^ See you in class!

Cheers,
Becka
