Oral Final Exam Interview

For the oral final exam, you will interview a native Korean speaker for 10 to 15 minutes, and video tape it --you may get help from your friend for the video taping.

[Note] You will give a narration about the interviewee in the essay in the final written exam.

You may prepare notes, but should not read out of your notes. You will be graded on the following:

1. Naturalness: Be natural.
   How natural the interview looks like; reading out of your notes will cost the naturalness and reduce your score in this category

   
   
2. Accuracy of vocabulary and grammar
   
   


3. Interaction: Expand your dialogue
   Even though it is an interview, it will have to be a spontaneous interaction. For every interview question of yours, you should also say something about yourself. You will score better if you expand your interaction by adding more to the intial question-and-answer sequence.



4. Content: Cover all the topics dealt with in this semester.
   You need to cover a wide variety of topics. The more topics you cover, the better you will score.



5. Use of patterns:
   You should utilize the grammar patterns and useful expressions covered in this class as much as you can. Using the grammar patterns or expressions beyond this class does not necessarily score better. It is more important to use the patterns covered this semester.

Media and submission:

You can use any digital media; digital camcorder, digital camera, cell phone, etc. Just make sure the audio quality is good and clear enough. You may use a video camcorder, but in that case, you need to digitalize your recording for submission.

Submit your video in a CD Rom, a DVD, or flash memory card. You will get your flash memory card back. (Due Dec. 9, Thursday)
