My Students Made Videos: Yeah, They’re Hilarious.

I had the kids make a video project last semester for the basic, first level English class in high school.

Since I work for a Samsung owned school, each student has a brand new Galaxy Tablet. The assignment was introducing an aspect of Korean culture. What the kids chose ranged from hilarious to scary.

Here’s Jong Won’s video about study culture in Korea and how it drives kids to suicide. No, I was not pleased with their ending.

Here’s JiHoon’s video about study culture. His ended in suicde as well. I had to lecture this class on appropriate content…sigh. It’s a serious issue and should be treated as such.

Here’s Jisu’s cute video about traditional food.

And here is the universal class favorite: HanShin’s group didn’t even speak English at all, didn’t introduce any kind of Korean culture, but somehow won the student vote for best video. Sigh.

Here’s Hoseong’s hilarious video about stealing snacks.

This is BoHee’s take on drinking culture in Korea. Boy, do Koreans drink.

God, I love teaching sometimes.

What do you think of the topics they chose? Appropriate? Do they surprise you? Let me know in the comments below.
