News listening class: 3rd year Bachelor students

In today's class, you are going to work in pairs in the lab to watch a recent news video, then report back to the class on it.

Choose a video from VOA News Video. The site is a little strange to use; to find the full range of videos you must scroll down in the middle of the page, not on the side.

On the menu on the right, you will find many choices in different categories: Latest Video (the first page); News and Politics; Economy; US Life and Arts; and Science/Health.

Tabs at the bottom give you other choices: Going Green, Money in Motion, Now U Know, Off the Beaten Path, and The Link.

Each subject category is explained, and each video includes a short description to give you the context.

Happy listening and reporting!
