Today the leadership team had a serious talk about where we are and where we want to go. We have come to the conclusion that we have not done as well as we originally thought. Most of our teaching has ceased and any connections we were trying to build have not gone through.
Possible connections have been very evasive. We email and they don't. We need to try harder to build new connections so we can continue teachings. This is going to be our goal for the final trimester. Foreign forums may give us many opportunities. We will see.
Other than that, we have been doing OK. We continue to work with Italki and make/correct posts every meeting. Some teachers work on Italki outside of the service learning period. I use this for Chinese and it has really helped improve my writing. I truly believe that it really helps English students.
We have also started on our next videos! Scripts are being written, ideas formulated, and soon filming will begin. Next week should mark the start of filming.
That was a serious meeting! We shall continue next week!
