9th Semester Oral Challenge: Guidebook to the great cafes in Morelia

People are always looking for great cafes. We are going to compile an audio guidebook that can help both visitors and locals find the best places to visit and enjoy in Morelia.

You are going to record an audio podcast (with your own voice) using Voicethread. Submit your podcast or talking photo in this post as a comment (found on the bottom of the post. Any audio applications sent personally via email to the teacher will not be opened. Here on the blogpost, they can be accessed by the rest of the class…and the rest of the world!

Take pictures or download them to have a visual reference of the places you will mention in your guidebook. If you are downloading someone else’s picture, please state the name of the person who took the photo and where you found it to avoid plagiarism.
