We called it the &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wisc.edu\/wisconsin-idea\/\">Wisconsin Idea<\/a>&#8221; project.<\/p>\n<p>Students worked in four teams: One group created <a href=\"https:\/\/grammarbadgers.wordpress.com\/videos\/\">one-minute videos<\/a> that address grammar issues people often feel confused about, one group created <a href=\"https:\/\/grammarbadgers.wordpress.com\/podcasts\/\">four-minute podcasts<\/a> on &#8220;linguistic misfits&#8221; and on what we can learn from mistakes , one group created <a href=\"https:\/\/grammarbadgers.wordpress.com\/quiz\/\">a grammar quiz<\/a> with video explanations, and one group created <a href=\"https:\/\/grammarbadgers.wordpress.com\/teaching\/\">teaching materials for ESL classes.<\/a>\u00a0Students learned about the ins and outs of filming on campus, figured out the best interviewing techniques, worked collaboratively on sound and movie editing (those phonology classes came in handy!) as well as website and logo design and had the brilliant idea to make Bucky Badger an ally. The result is<a href=\"https:\/\/grammarbadgers.wordpress.com\/\"> a website<\/a> that provides information, resources, and entertainment!
