Contest Description
Technology has taken a role as a means of learning language. With the increasing popularity of social media tools, language learning is increasingly associated with mobile technology which largely helps engage students in out-of-class language learning activities. This mobile-assisted language learning task aims at combining language learning with real-life experiences.
Vlogging, which refers to video and blog, is about providing online broadcasts which serve as both an audiovisual life documentary and a vehicle for communication. Vloggers post their stories or information about their interested topics in the form of video and share them on any social media platforms, such as YouTube, Facebook and Instagram.
This activity is a smartphone-based vlog contest which requires participants to engage in smartphone-based video filming. The contest is targeted at all students of the university. Students will participate as individuals. Each participant will be asked to produce two short video clips between 3 and 5 minutes in length each (one in English and one in Cantonese/Putonghua) on the following topic which can be narrowed down and focused to a specific theme relevant to it:
Introduce an interesting place in Hong Kong
Submission Requirement
1. The two video clips should have the same visual elements. The organisation and pace of the clips should also be the same. The content should be original, narrated solely by the participant, and the content of the two clips should be equivalent to each other.
2. Your full name, student number and title of the vlog should be introduced with a full screen title page at the beginning of each video. Your vlogs have to be posted as two different video clips on YouTube accessible through your private Google accounts or university Google (s.eduhk.hk) accounts, using the unlisted function.
