1) Produce a workshop report for an English broadcasting company:
They want to introduce the apprenticeships young people can do in our region in their main radio programme on Europe. You have been asked to do a report on your typical day in the workshop. Prepare your text by using the new words, and then use the podcast programme "Audacity" for recording your report. Add some music you find suitable. You can also do an interview with one of the teachers or fellow students. Ask them to do it in English, or translate their German statements into English. Put your mp3 file into the Glass Classroom. If you don't know Audacity yet, here you can get help: tips how to create a podcast.
