Rubric for Culture Presentations
Estimad@s estudiantes,
Below, you will find the rubric I will use to grade the culture / glogster presentations. As it indicates, you will be graded on the impact your project has on recipient/audience of your poster, as well as the strength of the information and the organization of the material presented. You work will be classified as meeting the characteristics of one of the four levels (distinguished, proficient, apprentice or novice) for both of the categories. This rubric and the descriptions should give you a clearer idea of what your poster is expected to achieve, and how you are expected to present it.
General instructions for submission: All components should be brought with you to class on the due date. Late submissions will not be accepted, and absence from class will not be sufficient excuse for accepting late material. Not meeting any of the specifications listed below (submission of poster & rubric) will result in loss of points from final project grade. If there are any doubts about anything related to the project or the grade, questions should be made before the start of class on the project due date. Lack of understanding (followed by lack of asking for an explanation) will not be an excuse for lateness or non-submission.
Submission of Poster: As stated earlier, the poster should be printed on an 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper. Your name should be written on the back of your poster in such a way that it is not visible through the paper. You do not need to print in color. If you feel the clarity of your poster's contents is significantly decreased in printing it, you may bring in--in addition to the printed version--a laptop to allow for your classmates to see the poster. You must still submit a printed version.
Submission of Rubric: Please bring a copy of this rubric along with your poster. You should print this on a separate sheet with at least five skipped lines between the descriptions of "Awareness of Audience" and "Strength of Material, Organization".
¡Gracias!

Glogster Culture Project
¡Saludos!
Just wanted to give a bit more information about the Glogster poster project we discussed today. The posters are due on November 30th. I want you to bring a printed copy of your poster (8.5x11). The presentation should include some historical background on the country, but other than that, you can do anything you'd like.

Información examen oral
¡Saludos!
Aquí están las fotos para el examen oral.
En parejas, van a tener citas (appointments) de 15 minutos, y el examen va a durar (will last) aproximadamente diez minutos. Primero, van a hablar por unos minutos, van a saludar, hacer "small talk". Luego, van a hablar de una imagen que escogen (pick) ustedes. Después, yo escojo dos imágenes, y van a hablar de esas por unos minutos.
Ojo- the last image is a very important (to say the least) painting by a late-19th, early-20th century Puerto Rican painter, Francisco Oller. It was painted in 1893, and is titled "El Velorio" (The wake). I hope it will be a flexible and varied enough image to give you enough (interesting) topics to discuss.

Tarea & updates
¡Saludos!
Favor de leer la sección de cultura sobre Costa Rica, páginas 190 a 191 en el libro de texto impreso (printed), y "Un paso más", páginas 194 a 195. Esta lectura es para mañana, martes, 9 de noviembre.
The details with regards to the oral exam (how long to talk, format, what additionals are allowed) are still being decided. I will upload the images here later on tonight. The mercado image won't be used; we'll find another one to replace it. By Wednesday all of the information will be clear.
What I expect will happen (no guarantees): we'll start off with basic saludos, talk a little about your likes & dislikes, a few minutes of conversation (similar to what we did for the extra credit), then spend about 3-5 minutes talking about each image. You pick one that you prepare a conversation about, and I will pick one for you to discuss in addition to that.
Most likely, you will not be allowed to have anything written with you, nor will you be allowed to use English (as with written evaluations). If you don't know how to say something, find another way to express it, or skip on to the next thing. No big.
Si hay preguntas, ya saben cómo comunicarse conmigo. Until we have the details figured out, I suggest making lists of what we've done so far, seeing anything you have questions about, asking questions in class this week, and studying :). For my 1pm class, you've got until midnight to let me know your groups (if you prefer picking them); sometime between that time and class tomorrow, I'll post the list of all the pairs (and most likely, the time slots for everyone--both classes--as well).
Hasta la próxima,
Isis
