This exercise can be done with any level, even with complete beginners.
Lesson Plan
1 After doing your normal lesson tell the students that you will be videoing the dialogue in the course book. To do this you will need props and somebody to be the camera operator.
2 Students assign themselves roles and rehearse their lines. When they feel comfortable with their performance they ask the camera operator to video them. This could be done with a digital camera or a suitably equipped mobile phone.
It is very important that students understand that this exercise is indeed a performance and to do it well doesn't just mean getting the grammar or pronounciation of individual sound right. It should sound as natural as possible.
3 Transfer the videos to a PC, ask students to look at them and think of ways they could improve them. This need not be just focused on language points, it could also cover points such as speaking more loudly, lighting or staying in focus.
4 If necessary, students record their performance once again.
5 These videos can be posted on a class or personal blog via YouTube. Alternatively, students can save them on a memory stick/mp3 player/mobile phone and transfer them to their own PC as part of their electronic portfolio.
Instead of using dialogue from a course book you could also use comic strips or film dialogue as a starting point .
