Podcast Communication


  1. What do you expect to learn from this pod-casting project? (List as much as possible.) 
    • I hope to learn more about casual Japanese speech
    • I hope to learn more about Japanese movies (specifically Ghibli) as we make the podcast
    • I hope to inform others about an aspect of Japanese culture using Japanese
    • I hope to learn about situations in daily life where conversation can be in Japanese
    • I hope to learn how to edit film and produce a good video
  2. What does "communication" mean to you?
    • Communication means passing on information to others -- whether effective or not
    • Effective communication means clear, concise, and to-the-point information and method of conveyance; effective communication is the same in English or in Japanese
    • Our goal is that our podcast can effectively communicate our ideas, even if it is in Japanese

  1. I want to learn more about casual Japanese speech too. (Plain form is really confusing..)
    I'm looking forward to your group's podcast! Ghibli's films are great!

  3. Very well identified! Communicating effectively in another language is very important and I think while it also shows someones command over that language, it also depends on the individuals skill. On another note i wish i could say my goal was to develop my editing and producing skills via this project, but that would be wishful thinking =P Good luck to you with that!

  4. I like your distinction between communication and effective communication. Well put! And of course, we do strive to communicate effectively, but we don't always succeed...
