Unit Reflection 3

Unit Reflection 3
      This is the third impression reflection which about movies and interviews.
      First of all, we had a fascinating interview with my partner who acted the famous movie star Jio. I pretended the interviewer and Elisa assumed Jio. We had a good welcome as a real one and then I asked different personal questions. Secondly, I made an interview with a man about movies and his travel experience. He told me he liked science-fiction movie most and introduced me to see his favorite film. Later I asked where he travelled last holiday. He said he went to Thailand with his wife and ate local meal-hot pot. In fact, he was not really like to eat it. Thirdly, I made a movie record about The Day After Tomorrow and uploaded it on YouTube. It`s the first time I transferred it on website. Because I wanted to make it better, I practice many times. Fourthly, we wrote different worksheet include genre, movie industry, list of groups and crossword puzzle. We work in groups and asked the others` help. In addition, we read Tyler Perry`s money machine from textbook and finished worksheet. Oh, it`s a little hard for me because there`s some new vocabularies that I had never remembered. Therefore, I checked them on internet dictionary and read this article more than five times. Then, we listened 151 movies interview. Oh, that`s difficult! They spoke too fast to listen clearly. In fact, I repeated to listen many times. Finally, I composted my first movie poster and the topic was The Life of Husky. It`s a exciting work that I really love it! Absolutely, I want to see my classmates` work!
      Actually, I prefer this unit than the others because movie is the favorite part in my life. It makes us comfortable, relax and joyful. Therefore, I am so happy to learn this unit.

Reflection of Unit 2

This is the second unit about pop culture. We read textbook, wrote essay, listened Mixer, had speech and watched movies. It`s a really good week. First of all, we read guide: Introduction to Students. It`s from our textbook and I knew the definition of popular culture. Also, I got pop culture was made up of objects, people, events, and places. After I read the content and checked the website, I knew objects were like rap songs and TV shows; People was like Harry potter; Events was like the Super Bowl and places were like shopping malls and Hollywood. Aha! That`s very interesting, right? Secondly, we finished a mini fad report from www.crazyfads.com. It`s a special website which told me the popular things from different decades. For example, ant farm was famous in the 1950s. People liked to take a real ants’ farm in a glass framed box and they said it was very funny. Thirdly, we thought about stars, such as movie stars, sports stars, and TV shows stars. Also, our teacher gave us different websites to show what makes a star. She gave us 5 example include Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber and etc. Besides that, we thought about our pop stars. Definitely, my pop star is Marlon Brando. I made a presentation of him and had a speech. After that, I knew Marlon Brando was not only an America actor, but also a film director. He won twice of Academy Award for playing. And he was called the most important people of the century. What`s more, we prepared team work and my part is describe the fad movie, technology as well as sports in the 2000s. Our group made on prezi.com. Fourthly, we sought many different resources about pop culture students. I went to blackboard and found 3 folders. In addition, I watched “Major Theorists”, “Media Theory Sites” and I also wrote the questions from paper. Moreover, I watched 9 minutes video and wrote some notes. Then, I finished team portfolio and review midterm. I found them from blackboard. Finally, we listened a radio about how to make a conversation. It`s included how to start, how to continue and how to end the conversation. In addition, we watched a famous biographical film called Ray and wrote a review. I did not know that blog was so interesting before and I put my movie review record on my blog. It`s a interesting unit which attracted my eyes. The special thing was that I never ever felt nervous when I had a speech. That`s a good news, right? I became more confident than before and I believe I will be more and better in the future.
