Ted Talk on Mental Health

Task:

listen to the ted talk and take-notes. Even if you think you have a good memory, it's good to take notes: remember, you're not only listening to have an idea of the content but in order to work on your language skills. Thus, please do the following:

1) Listen more than once if necessary. DO NOT USE  THE SUBTITLES at first.

2) If you have problems understanding, go back and listen again to a probelamtic part (with no subtitles). If you really don't understand, listen again with the subtitles on. Then turn them off and listen to it again.

3) While listening take notes of ideas and vocabulary. Write down not only the expressions you haven't been acquainted with, but those that are not part of your active vocabulary, even if you have no difficulty understanding.

4) Write 5 vocabulary items into our googledoc.

5) Prepare for the in-class discussion.
