I've mentioned wanting to use Assimil as a book. I'm also thinking about using French in Action. I'm thinking it has more language content per minute as most films, and most of the content is regular speed French. I plan on counting 4 episodes, @25 mins each, as a single film.
I know lots of people want to add their own little ideas to the challenge, and enough is enough. However, it occurs to me that in the interest of completion, music should be included as well, but separately. So I'm suggesting that those who want to can informally track listening to TL albums. Listening to 100 albums wouldn't be that hard to do, to be honest, and it would add a great deal to your cultural knowledge. I stress that this would be an informal part of the challenge. Someone else mentioned conversation, and I think it would be nice for people to informally list their hours of conversation as well. 4 persons have voted this message useful | |||

I've decided to track progress on a blog here - partly because I wanted to mess with WordPress and partly just so I have a record of what I'm doing. Am also happy to go with any group tracking people come up with.
Really looking forward to this - it'll be difficult I'm sure, but the results should be more than worth the effort. Edited by Tamise on 14 April 2012 at 12:34pm 5 persons have voted this message useful | |||

oh i love the idea of what you're doing there. I've actually been considering blogging my language learning, just so I have a better log. Perhaps I should use the challenge as an opportunity to get started. I love your layout! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I'd like to try for Japanese. It's very hard for me to get films in Japanese here, but since I can watch the same ones several times, I suppose it could work. Of course, I might go out of my mind :)
Also, it might be very difficult with reading. My absolute fastest reading speed, on really easy books, is about 5 minutes per page. If I can read that fast and choose only books with 101 pages, I will still have to read nearly 1.5 hours a day. If the books are somewhat harder, or longer, I could easily come up to 6 hours of reading pr day. Therefore, I will choose a half-challenge. (Of course, if I really do manage 100 of each in that time, I will deny this and claim that I signed up for a whole-challenge.) ;) I have a TAC-log already, so I will probably just keep track there, if it's allowed. 1 person has voted this message useful |
