Session Activity- Bring a map and a fellow speaker and have a conversation
Item Produced- Welding terms, and boat knowledge
Summary- More boat talk...
Linguistic Effective- Having the other speaker helped with dialog. It was interesting to follow the conversation
Linguistic Ineffective- The map did not spur memories. The speaker had a lot of difficulty seeing the map. Our location did not help with this. Though the living room setting was good for two people discussing, three people and an object must gather around a table
Linguistic Provisional Improvements- If you have a map, bring a magnifying glass.
Cultural Effective- Having another person there was interesting on a dialog point, but also in semantics. It was interesting to see what another fluent speaker understood, and more importantly did not understand.
Cultural Ineffective- The map was totally useless. It was a map of the land. The speaker seemed very uninterested.
Cultural Provisional Improvements- Add a section about bringing another person into the conversation
Tomorrow- Finish the orthography!
Further Comments- This is frustrating, no matter what happens, everything returns to boats. It is very difficult to get any information beyond this subject
