About Communication

What do you expect to learn from the podcast project? (List as many as you can.)
First, it is very practical for us to use the vocabulary and grammar of Japanese in our podcast project. We can practice and strengthen what we learned in the classroom.
Secondly, we can use this podcast to know more about Japanese culture. As we know, we will visit different Japanese culture related spots in the city. From this process, we can have a greater exposure of Japanese culture.
Thirdly, we maybe communicate with Japanese people through this video and listen to their advice and find out how to learn Japanese more efficiently.

What does "communication" mean to you?
I think by saying communication we mean we have the sense to convey or deliver some information to the person who does not know it beforehand. With this project, our  target audience is Columbia student and Japanese people who wants to stay in New York city. The information that we want to convey is that people can find a lot of Japanese-related places in the city. If they are interested in Japanese culture, we offer them some suggestions and selections for them to visit or use for fun and study. We also wants to show that Japanese culture in New York City is very alive and unique comparing to cultures of other countries.

  1. As you mentioned, one of the purpose and benefits of this podcast project would be using vocabulary and grammar you have learned in a real-world situation. I hope you'll have an opportunity to communicate with Japanese people!
    I really like the way you defined communication with regard to your podcast project. I am looking forward to getting a new set of information from your project as one of your audience.
