Assignments for Friday, April 4

This is what is due by Friday, April 4:

For class:
*do the online tutorial, Modules 3, 4, 5 and 6.  Make sure that you can articulate the main points made by the tutorial.
*try to memorize the phrases that we went over in class last Friday.
*read the stapled handout that I distributed at the first class, if you haven't done so already.

On your individual blog:
*by noon Friday, post your itinerary on your individual blog.  Make it informative and attractive by using images, links, etc.  The main components should be:
--a main objective: museum, store, tourist or historical site, temple, shrine, neighborhood, etc. and a description of what you would want to do there
--a place to eat (please avoid something as "easy" as  a museum cafe; you should be able to find something near the main objective
--some information about transportation access.  You don't know where you will be starting from, but you should know if there is a train or subway station nearby, or if you need to take a bus, etc.
--finally, I was hoping that you would share any resources that you found to be particularly useful.  For example, does Trip Advisor have a lot of information about Tokyo, Kyoto, etc.?  Are there Japan-specific sites that you would recommend?

AGENDA FOR APRIL 4'S CLASS:
*go over the tutorial sections that were assigned
*take a quick look at the itineraries
*practice the phrases learned last week, and go over some new ones
*talk about the handout I gave everyone (this is the stapled one that I wrote)

COMING UP LATER:
*finishing the tutorial
*reading and discussing the photocopied book
*discussion of research topics
