London Interviews

Today we're going to:

1. Learn about the project you'll do during the London trip
   
2. Brainstorm a topic you're interested in learning about
   
3. Form groups
   
4. Choose a topic together
   

What did you notice about that video? What is your opinion about it?

Your group will also conduct a few interviews with Londoners! 

1. You will write at least 10 interview questions based on your chosen topic
   
2. You will record an interview with 2-3 people in London using all your questions each time.
   
3. When you arrive back to the Netherlands, you will edit and turn in the video material via Teams. 

You will be graded on the quality of your questions, your speech, and your communication - part of that is listening...

But what do I ask them?

What are you interested in? 

Which culture topics from the last few weeks do you remember?

What do you remember
about that topic?

What more would you like
to know about that topic?

Now we are going to choose groups! 

• Think carefully about this - your group member's efforts will affect your grade! 
  
• You also need to agree on a topic. Make sure everyone thinks it's interesting and is OK with the chosen topic. 
  
• Take 4 minutes to choose group members and sit with them in the classroom. Ask your teacher if you need help. 
  

Take 2 minutes to choose a topic

with your group!

What is your group's topic?

Research your topic

Start doing some research on your topic with your group and make notes. Your goal is to learn  more about the topic through your research and the interviews you do in London. Your video should start with a short introduction to your topic.

Research your topic

While doing your research, ask yourself the following questions:

• What do you already know about the topic?
• What do you want to find out about the topic?

Divide the work and make notes that you can use to create a short introduction to your topic.  Save all the information you find!  This introduction will be the first part of your London interview video.

On the next slide, another video to start getting you ready for your London interviews!

You will do more research on your topic and we will focus on
