About Communication

What do you expect to learn from this pod-casting project? (List as much as possible.)

1. teamwork
I want to learn how to work in the group. This includes that how to communicate with teammates efficiently, how to share ideas and how to compromise for the final decisions. 

2. Japanese culture
First, by doing the pod-casting project, we will have the chance to use our Japanese knowledge in a more practical way. Through the project, we will learn more Japanese language and culture from both online sources and real life experience. From the interview and help from Japanese teacher and students, we want to learn more about Japanese culture not only from our book but also from people from Japan. Their experience would really help us to find the differences between US culture and Japanese culture and show them in our video, which would help people in US and Japan to understand each other. 

3. ability to express our ideas in an efficient way
Because we have limited time and technical ability to work, we want to express our ideas efficiently in the short video. For the script, we want to express our ideas in a direct way so that people would understand it when hearing. With the help from video, we hope to show the story vividly that is consistent and interesting so that people are willing to watch until the end. After watching it, people would think about the video and actually understand something. 

What does "communication" mean to you?
Communication is the most important thing in our life because the communicate efficiently would help us express our ideas to the audience and understand other people's ideas.
