ASILE conference presentation:
Workshop Broadcasting student work - The ABBI YouTube short film competition Abstract The new "Australia Bisa Bahasa Indonesia" (ABBI) Youtube Competition aims to promote Indonesian in the wider community while simultaneously creating teaching resources, offering motivation and recognition to students, and finally promoting moderation across different schools and states. In this presentation we will look at the success of the competition thus far, discuss one model for using the competition in the classroom, look at sample assessment tasks which use a format friendly to the competition and touch on how it all links in with the Australian Curriculum. |
