“Everyone truly wants you to succeed”

"The most valuable lesson I learned at LCC is that people are the most valuable asset in every organization. Having talked to many alumni, they always said that people are what creates the real LCC experience, and now looking back, I couldn’t agree more. It is our amazing staff and faculty who share common values and help us grow not only as professionals but also individuals, and it is the students who later become your second family. It has taught me to care about each person I work or interact with. I believe that LCC is the place where you can create the experience you want. You can always find the right people to help you implement even the craziest idea or project and also find the resources to get it done. Appreciate that at LCC everyone truly wants you to succeed."

From dream diary to director’s chair.

2024-04-17

LCC International University contemporary communication senior Kristofer Gobins, 22, Latvia, turned a subconscious adventure into a real movie with the help of fifteen students, one alumnus, a film professor and a marketing department staff member. “In this movie we were utilizing the aesthetic of randomness and emptiness from my actual dreams,” said Gobins, while pointing at his head. Latvian abandoned village, Stirnas Ciems, was the inspiration for Gobins to write the horror movie script for his final thesis work with the help of his advisor Mischa Cantú-Blake, 35, United States.   “My father’s graduation gift, 5,000 euros, made it possible,” said Gobins.Despite the limitations of the budget, Gobins' resourceful team improvised solutions throughout filming included everything from repurposing everyday objects, such as pieces of cloth, as props to utilizing natural light.Before venturing to the location, the crew created a storyboard of key scenes and mapped out filming within the studios’ structures.Filming itself took place over five days in the Cinevilla Studio, near Tukums, Latvia and two days in a nearly abandoned village, with the cast and crew braving the wind and cold in order to finish the project. “I sincerely value students’ presence and involvement on set; without them the process would not have been this smooth and exciting,” said film professor Cantú-Blake of LCC students' willingness to take up a project during the spring break.The crew and cast for “Mira House '' were selected by Gobins by means of online applications and while some had prior experience in stage productions, others were complete newcomers. Gobins, along with his advisers, held meetings to guide participants through the script and build their confidence prior the trip to Latvia.Script readings and brainstorming sessions at LCC International University refined the narrative and ensured the film resonated with people. “I was surprised to be chosen and I was completely taught how to record sound for the movies professionally, people usually pay thousands of dollars for such a thing,” said Mariia Yushchyshyna, 19, Ukraine, sophomore contemporary communication student, who held the role of a sound mixer in the crew. Gobins crafted a diverse cast with students from Georgia, United States, Kazakhstan and Latvia; these contrasting personalities add layers of tension so each character represents a different archetype and aims for the movie to stand out of the traditional horror movie narratives.The completed film promises a unique visual style blurring the lines between reality and nightmare through a combination of unsettling imagery and camerawork.“We wanted to be ‘around the corner’ scary, not just using the usual monster chasing them,” said Gobins.“Mira house” is in the post-production stage where Gobins is collaborating with the sound design team. “The challenge lies in balancing the unsettling atmosphere captured on camera with crafting a cohesive story that will leave a lasting impact on viewers,” said Gobins.“I would not recommend listening to all the sounds recorded during the night to anyone, except it is my job,” said Yushchyshyna, grinning and shrugging. While the official release date is still under wraps and the spring semester nearing its end, the "Mirror House" team intensifies post-production efforts to finalize the film for release. “Be flexible and be ready to work with what you have, do not set expectations but ‘do be yourself’,” said Gobins as a final advice for aspiring filmmakers.Courtesy of Xeniya Cherednik

How much feedback is enough?

2024-04-12

In this newsletter in January, I wrote about “Deep Understanding.” I am fascinated by this idea of teaching students to think deeply about topics and concepts. Deep Understanding** challenges students to explore academic relationships, to craft answers to problems, and to articulate explanations beyond simplistic answers. For students to understand concepts deeply, they benefit from regular, formative feedback from instructors. But the question remains: how much feedback is enough? Too little feedback leaves the eager students wondering how they can improve. Too little feedback leaves the deflated students wondering what they did wrong. When students lack concrete feedback on a regular basis, they may feel that the grades are issued arbitrarily. They may wonder if the teacher is measuring their work fairly. Too much feedback can be overwhelming. The “old style” of scribbling comments all over the paper with a red pen leaves a paper looking disheveled; no student enjoys reading illegible handwritten comments on their carefully crafted work. Today, with options for electronic feedback, teachers can overwhelm students with too many comments about everything from grammar mistakes to organizational comments.  As teachers, we make many decisions about how much feedback to give students. Some teachers spend hours carefully giving detailed feedback on organization, grammar, style, and vocabulary. Other teachers write simple comments about selected aspects of students’ work, choosing not to comment on everything.  Students receive feedback differently. Some students eagerly await detailed feedback. Other students take one look at the grade and one comment at the top of the page, and quickly dismiss the rest. The amount and type of feedback likely depends on several factors. • Is the assessment formative or summative?  During the term or at the end of a term?• What are the learning objectives of the assignment? • Will students be revising their work based on the feedback? • Will you ask students to reflect on your feedback and integrate your feedback in future assignments? From a Quality Teaching perspective, the most important question regarding the amount of feedback is: What “deep understanding” is important for the students to wrestle with here and now? How can my feedback lead to a more in-depth understanding of complex knowledge?  Feedback is teaching; teaching is giving feedback. Learning to give quality feedback is complex, but important skill for all teachers. ** From the University of Newcastle, the Quality Teaching model defines excellent teaching in the three dimensions of 1) Intellectual Quality, 2) Quality Learning Environment, and 3) Significance. Within the dimension of Intellectual Quality, we consider the concept of “deep understanding.”Author: Robin Gingerich, Ph.D., MA TESOL Program Director at LCC International University.
