Glossary: Traits of a language student


You and your classmates are going to create a collaborative glossary with the vocabulary related to traits a language student should have. The idea is to create a glossary that you can all check and revise whenever you want, and even print to take it with you.

These are the instructions:

1. Each student will have to include AT LEAST ONE TERM in the glossary, but of course you can create more than one. 

2. When creating an entry, you will have to include:

  • the word or expression,
  • its pronunciation (using the microphone tool),
  • definition or synonym and
  • an example,
  • an image (optional).

IMPORTANT! Do not forget to highlight the type of category of the word or expression, in order to facilitate future searches. The first word  has been created for you as an example.

-----------------------------------

This task will be self-assessed by each student and supervised by the teacher. Before you publish your contributions, please make sure they meet the following

Indicators of achievement:

1. The student has added at least one entry.

2. Each entry includes:

    • a word or expression
    • a recording of the pronunciation
    • a definition or synonym
    • an example
