| Re: Using movies
You need to carefully select the movies though. Using movies seems a good idea, but I do have hesitations mainly due to the speed of speaking by actors, slang and background noise. Showing movie segments also requires a lot of explanation.
I have never used movies in any of my classes. I remember once watching a Japanese movie in a Japanese class (when I was learning Japanese), and it was way too hard for most of us and as a result, the lesson was very frustrating and non-beneficial. |
