Explanation VLOG/podcast assignment 

+ starting the assignment

You'll hand in:

1. A VLOG or Podcast, done alone or in a group of two.

2. A script

3. A checklist, which makes sure your assignment is complete. 

What should you do?  FASE 1.            1-2 lessen.

1. Verzin een STANDPUNT over het onderwerp: "to the extreme". Start met 3 standpunten, controleer of je hier genoeg over kunt vinden en kies de sterkste.

2. Verzin 4 argumenten. 

3. Hierbij gebruik je 2 voorbeelden uit het echte leven om je argumenten te versterken.

4. Maak je mening over het onderwerp duidelijk. 

For example:

Standpunt: Extreme sports should be banned. 

Argument 1: There's a high Risk of Fatalities and Severe Injuries

Extreme sports involve life-threatening risks, even for experienced athletes. For example, Dean Potter, a well-known wingsuit flyer, died in 2015 while base jumping in 

Yosemite National Park. This incident shows that extreme sports can result in fatal accidents.

Argument 2: Encourages Reckless Behavior, Especially Among Young People

Many extreme sports are glorified on social media, influencing young and inexperienced people to attempt dangerous stunts. The "rooftopping" trend, where people climb skyscrapers without safety equipment, has resulted in multiple deaths. One example is Wu Yongning, a Chinese daredevil who fell to his death in 2017 while attempting a stunt for social media.

What should you do?  FASE 2 - Script.        2-3 lessen.

1. Je gebruikt 20 woorden uit de woordenlijst van ch4.

2. Je gebruikt 5x een modal, 5x een negation en 5x een preposition (zie grammar chapter 4). 

3. Highlight deze allemaal met een andere kleur in je script.

4. Oefen je script. Zorg dat je 3 tot 6 minuten aan het woord bent. 

For example

Alex: "Hey Jordan, have you ever thought about whether extreme sports should be banned? Some people say they are too dangerous."

Jordan: "I understand the concern, but I believe banning them would be excessive. Many people train for years to develop their skills and take safety precautions. Take Alex Honnold, for example—he climbed El Capitan without ropes, but he trained for years before attempting it."

Alex: "That’s impressive, but don’t you think extreme sports encourage reckless behavior? Remember that viral video of the guy wingsuiting between skyscrapers? He barely made it! Some thrill-seekers deliberately take unnecessary risks."

Jordan: "That’s true, but instead of banning them, we should focus on improving safety measures. Professional extreme athletes wear protective gear and undergo intense training. The real issue is amateurs attempting dangerous stunts without preparation."

Alex: "I guess a better solution would be stricter regulations rather than banning the sports entirely. That way, people can still enjoy them responsibly."

Volg het stappenplan op je hand-out (!!!!!!!). Je mag de voorbeelden gebruiken maar dit is niet verplicht. 

Zorg ervoor dat je ongeveer 1 tot 2 lessen besteedt aan het bedenken van een standpunt en argumenten, met bijbehorende voorbeelden. Laat dit controleren door je docent. Stuur het bijvoorbeeld via teams of lever je blaadje in. 

Zorg ervoor dat je ongeveer 2 tot 3 lessen besteedt aan het bedenken van het script. 

De laatste 2 a 3 lessen gebruik je op op te nemen of te filmen en om je opname/film te editen. 

En onthoud.... Hoe creatiever je product, hoe hoger je cijfer.

Verder verandert je cijfer aan de hand van je uitspraak, gebruik van het hoofdstuk, verklaren van je standpunt, beargumenteren, samenwerking, je houding in de les.... 

Je eindcijfer is het enige cijfer dat je krijgt voor hoofdstuk 4 en vervangt dus de toets.
