“It is time for us to get to know each other so we can do a great job together in the future!”
Step 1: Create a video of no more than one and a half minutes (90 s) in which you introduce yourself. State your name, country of origin, and share something about yourself, for example, your hobbies, the kind of music you like to listen to, what you study, as well as a place you would like to visit in Mexico (if you are from the United States) or places that interest you in the United States (if you are from Mexico). The goal is for the person watching your video to learn something about you, your country, and what you would like to discover about the country with which we will be collaborating.
Step 2: In the space assigned in Padlet, make a post using your information as the title, following this format: Nationality_Name_Last name. Example: Mexico_Victoria_Torres.
Step 3: Upload your video to Padlet
Step 4: Once you have posted your message, reply to two students of a different nationality than yours and comment on what you find interesting in their posts. The comments are written and should appear below the video post of the classmates you chose.
Recommendation: Post your video as soon as possible so that others have a chance to comment on it before the deadline! Remember that this is a great opportunity to meet people from other parts of the world.
