Assignment #4 Six minute English

      After our CALL class last week. And also next week, we're gonna facing the giant, I mean our middle exam. So I prefer to choose this one , 'How to prepare for an exam'.
topic http://www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/6-minute-english/ep-160616

     My summary for this Six minute English :
I prefer to choose this one because we're going to facing our middle exam on next week. This dialogue, between Alice and Rob its about 'How to prepare for an exam'. Alice said, we can prepare for an exam with summarising, highlighting or underlining text to help you remember it.But, John Dunlosky, Professor of Psychology at Kent State University said that trying to memorise the material is not enough, because you need to do something with it, for example like making flashcards of critical or important concepts and then testing yourself on them. This is called distributed practice.

Assignment #3 ESL Podcast

          After Our CALL class last week, I explored the other Podcast listening section to train my English, I prefer to pick this one https://www.eslpod.com/website/flash_player.php?issue_id=16992789 , lets check it out !

My comment on ESL Podcast is :

          I prefer to choose this one (ESL Podcast 1121 - Outdoor Sun Protection), because , I dont know. I dont have a reason why I choose this one. Just my random intuition. The dialogue in this part is between June and Walley about making sure you protect your skin when you are outside. I think the content is not good enough, I think is bored dialogue between these two people. This dialogue, is about June reminded Walley to use skin protection when he is outside. In the beginning, Walley said he used sunscreen, so he dont want to use sun protector again, but in the end, Walley said yes he will use it because he think it will helpful.

Assignment #2 Listening section

About our class on October 11, we discussed about listening section. And also we doing exercises about listening. First, we discussed about how difficult listening is, and what part in the listening that we feel hard?. Maybe I agree with English Vocabulary that we can't understand all of that things. but, the solution is, we can only listen the key word of part of listening section, and it will very helpfully. and about the exercises we do, we must listen very carefully about the question , and also this part is same things again listening part of TOEIC exam, and also it will helpful our TOEIC to be good. I'm very happy joining this class, thankyou very much !
