Project: Publish your Travel Advice, Review, or Comment (20 points)

--Due July 19th--

1. Choose 1 of the following,

-WikiTravel (edit a wiki & describe Japanese tourist sites - facts only, no opinions)

-AirlineEquality.com (review 1 flight/airline)

-TripAdvisor (review hotel, restaraunt, attraction, or location, or add a page)

-TripAdvisor Forum - Japan (give advice to people travelling to Japan on the forum)

2. Write 4+ sentences

-Write in paragraph form (but on Wikitravel, it is okay to add sentences to other paragraphs).

-Try to use the vocabulary we studied.

-Write formally (no hearts, etc.)

-Remember that non-Japanese will read it, so think about what foreigners want to do & what they know

(Japanese or Western things? / traditional or modern? / complicated or simple activities? / cute? / expensive?)

3. Edit the grammar and spelling!

-You should probably check it with Microsoft Word. I will check, too, if we have time.

4. Publish

On Wikitravel, press "edit" or "add listing"

On AirlineQuality, fill in the form

For the TripAdvisor Reviews, find the place you want to review & fill in the required fields

For the TripAdvisor Forum, find a comment you can reply to & click "Reply"

--For TripAdvisor, you need to register to the site.--

5. Copy & paste the review, advice, or description you wrote & the URL on your blog.
