Брось вызов предрассудкам!

 

 «Брось вызов предрассудкам: альянс в образовании и диалог России и Среднего Запада - Challenge Our Bias: Midwest-Russian Alliance on Dialogue and Education» - так называется грантовый проект по обмену студенческими группами, в котором участвуют студенты отделения журналистики КФУ и американского колледжа Хокай в штате Айова.

Один из учебных уроков, которые получат участники поездки – урок английского. Совершенствование языка – важная часть подготовительной программы. Ниже приведен опыт самопрезентации участников поездки на английском языке. Выступления ребят на предстоящий конференции в колледже также предполагается на английском. Результатом этой поездки должны стать журналистские публикации.

Уже состоялась совместная скайп-конференция, сформирована группа в социальных сетях, где учащиеся колледжа и студенты КФУ ведут интересный диалог о своих увлечениях и достопримечательностях регионов, которые они представляют. 18 мая ожидается ответный приезд учащихся колледжа в Казань. Они вполне могут рассматривать КФУ как место своей дальнейшей учебы. Мы готовимся к тому, чтобы представить наш город и университет в лучшем виде.

А в программе поездки, которая состоится с 20 по 28 апреля, студентов отделения журналистики ожидает много интересного: три встречи и конференция со студентами и преподавателями колледжа и университета Северной Айовы, посещение двух лекционных и семинарских занятий, посещение местных СМИ. В их числе: редакция местной городской газеты Waterloo/CedarFallsCourier, радиостанция, городское телевидение (где предполагается поучаствовать в дневной новостной программе в прямом эфире), редакция престижной региональной газеты Des Moines Register, одной из лучших в США. Ребята примут участие во встрече со студентами и преподавателями отделения массовых коммуникаций университета Северной Айовы.

Поскольку Айова – штат сельскохозяйственный, гостям покажут местную ферму в окрестностях Waterloo. Ну, и, конечно же, в Программе – посещение выставок, музеев, местного Центра Искусств, музыкального концерта, книжных магазинов и других культурных мероприятий. А также ознакомительные поездки по Waterloo и другим городам: столице штата Айова DesMoines (Де Мойн), Cedar Falls (СидерФолс), Cedar Rapids (Сидер Рапидс), Iowa City (Айова Сити), а также в один из крупнейших городов США Чикаго.

This activity helps to practice my English. Also I worked at Canoe, Rowing, Shooting World Championships in 2012. The main aim of my trip is improving my English, easily communicate with agemates, native people, see sights. I communicated with foreign people in my home country. But I've never been and never talked with them in their native country. I'dremovethismistakeandtravelthere.

Sophy Orlova

Hello! I'm Sophy. I'm a student of the university KFU and my future avocation is TV journalism. In our faculty we think that journalism it's not a career it's a lifestyle. That's true! When I see something interesting or important, first idea is "I need to write about it". I had worked in a magazine calls "Helicopter" and I've never thought before that aviation is so interesting. And now I desire learn to pilot plane. But my biggest love is motorbikes. More precisely to say, I like to ride them.
In my opinion it is important to see other cultures for understanding yours own. And this trip is a great opportunity to see American culture, lifestyle and to know about education system. Because all this things are different in our countries.

This trip for me is new emotions and new friends, And I hope that you can give it to me.

Hello, my name is Sabina Vakhitova. I'm 21 years old. I live in Zelenodolsk, it is asmall town near Kazan. I am fifth-year student of KFU and work as a journalist for 6 years. I had a tough choice between journalism and design, but then infographics came up and I found myself in new "genre".

Christina Gizatulina

Christina Gizatulina, 22 years, almost graduated journalist, fan of all kinds of schools, conferences and courses about journalism (and funny hats).
Had experience at internet-radio, TV, online media and newspapers, magazines. I like to write reports from concerts and I'm cool at this.
From age 8 write poems, age 14 - articles. Since I'm 15 - play drums in a rock-groups. Art photographer during 2 years. Actually, my life is in my strange friends: for example, the biker-poet, the future surgeon with a green beard, charming fan of voodoo dools etc.
Want to understand the information politics of the mass media of the USA, in particular, learn how do online media work, whether is transmedia, how make high-quality publications survive, in particular, the music press. As a bonus, I would like to know the difference of the media in the United States to see what subjectivity broadcasting is in USA and Russia. Maybe some of you also instead of sensations prefers publicism and interesting stories about people?

 

Angelika Hasanova

Hello. My name is Angelika, I'm 19 years old. I was born and grown up in Kazan. I'm studying in Kazan Federal University as a journalist and as a translator in professional communication sphere. I enjoy my university departments very much. Hope, I'll become a good professional and have an opportunity to travel around the world, meet interesting people and take part in numerous events. Our world is very colourfull and complicated, so, personally for me, visiting America is a great chance to start exploring this world and people.
My hobbies are pretty common, I think. I'm fond of reading books, listening music, watching films or cartoons (sometimes). I also enjoy eating tasty food and playing some online games (nowadays I visit daily just one of them, howrse, yep, I'm a proud breeder of 85 unicorns). But I always try something new, what my friends are suggesting to.
When I was trying to imagine our trip to USA, my first dreams were about speaking with people. For me this is the most important part of visiting new places. Hope, they (people) will be sociable and talkative.

 

See you soon!
