online registration for participants for Culture Talk 2007 just closed 15mins ago. we have a total of 5288 accounts registered. subtracting some no. of admin and teachers accts, we should have at least 5200 students with us in the forum!
《文化,开讲!》in a way “forces” these 5000 over students to read, think and express themselves (type) in Chinese. not sure if this impact is big or small, but it’s at least something i have done for the students and aid them in their learning of CL and culture.
still got many things to do, it’s only the first week, the first discussion sub-theme is now in hot debate. will post more updates as things go 🙂
