1. Interview an immigrant in Finland
- interview somebody who has moved to Finland and lives here now as an immigrant / asylum seeker/ has aquired Finnish citizenship
- do the interview in English and take a video of it
- you can write your own questions but the questions should all be related to what it is like to be an immigrant in Finland
- important: don't just ask questions, remember to comment on the answers and be an active listener!
- lenght 5-15 minutes
2. Your own charity campaign
- invent your own charity campaign and present it to me in English
- take a video of yourself presenting your campaign ( you can use props, e.g. pictures if you want but they are not necessary)
- you should tell me the following:
1. The aim of your campaign
2. How you are hoping to achieve that aim
3. Why you think your campaign is important
- important: this is kind of like an advertisement for your campaign, so remember to be convincing.
- lenght 5-15 minutes
3. Making a change in Helsinki
- think of something you want to change in Helsinki (for example: improve the public transportation system, create more shelters for homeless people, create more roads for cyclists, build new hospitals..)
- take a video of yourself presenting arguments for this change
- you should tell me the following:
1. The change you want to make
2. Why we need this change
3. How our lives will improve with this change
- important: try your best to convince me that this is really important!
- lenght 5-15 minutes
Important! You can also do the video in pairs. If you decide to do that, remember that you will get separate feedback (so make sure you're both equally active).
Whatever you choose yo do, make sure you return your video to me BEFORE THE EXAM! That way I will have time to give you feedback. During our last lesson I will show everyone some of the best videos (if you agree to that, of course, nobody's video is going to be shown without consent).
You can return your video either by email to heini.puhakka@tyk.fi or you can use Whatsapp. My phone number is 0443249368.
Hope you enjoy making your video :) Feel free to ask me any questions at any time!
