This project consists of the creation of a series of six short films created with animation software. These videos will present situations involving a small group of characters and will be used in the ITA1010 class primarily for listening comprehension exercises and to increase vocabulary acquisition. It is important to stress, though,

that videos are generally a very flexible tool, and the series of animated videos created with this project will lend itself for use as prompts for working with other skills. For example, the videos may be used as starting points for productive speaking activities, or they could be used as models for writing tasks. Additionally, the scripts may be exploited for improving reading skills.
