This page appears to be get a very good ammount of visitors. How do you advertise it? It provides a nice individual twist on details. I assume having a little something authentic or substantial to speak about is the most important matter.

Students may find programs translated into their best language or copy a prior student’s summary, but that seldom happens in my classes. Why? Perhaps because I encourage each student to follow their own interests and give them a platform to share their experiences and perceptions. Many students – especially if they have been denied the opportunity to choose their materials in previous schools – welcome the opportunity.

This is a good assignment, but not for homework. Students can cheat too easily.

Karenne – Excellent additional suggestions!

Thank you, as always, for visitng and sharing your web-savvy ideas. While wealthier countries are more likely to have an English version of a national radio program, it’s certainly worth checking out!

Super tip, Eric!

Additonally, via the radio section in i-tunes, students can even make choices, finding stations that broadcast in English from all over the world.

If they look into podcasts as an option, sometimes a national radio station also produces an English language version of their normal content (e.g. In Germany Deutsche Welle has an English news version).

Take care,
Karenne
