- Identify which listening strategies would be useful for watching the movie
- Take notes / answer questions while watching the movie
Well it was all a bit of a farce this day - the lab computer wasn't equipped with the movie-watching programme, as i'd been informed it would be. So in between putting it on the two smaller TV screens and then deciding to watch it via a different computer, it took a lot more time than we had - the movie is LONG!!
I felt flustered and out of control, and more so when we discovered that the speakers were only playing one half of the sound - the music and sound effects, but hardly any dialogue! MORE fixing and struggling. So in the end we had about an hour of movie to watch when there was about 1 1/2 hours left of it. I was very disappointed, and it meant the students had to do more reading comprehension than listening comp, which had been the aim of the exercise. It was not very enjoyable and also as a result the sts missed a number of the questions on the handout. Still, we decided to finish watching the movie on Friday's class "con calma".
