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:

explanation of sand blasting and the online
silk screen printing course. There are some special technical
terms in sand blasting as well as the historical importance of the printing
process for artists are described. Collect the terms and use them in your
report. You can also start a web research on artists you like and describe
their silk screen printings. Post your report about these artists in the Glass
Classroom.
