Hernandez & Prikhodko Present at ACTFL
Rosana Hernandez and Evgeniya Prikhodko, graduate students in Hispanic Language & Literatures and French Language & Literature, respectively, presented their collaborative work at the annual conference of ACTFL (American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages), which took place in Boston, November 18-21. Their talk, entitled ‘Improving Presentational Writing Through Visual Tasks: Instagram Post and Concept Maps’, resulted from the work they presented at a Brown Bag seminar in the spring 2022 semester.
Under the guidance of Kirby Chazal, Senior Lecturer in French, Rosana and Evgeniya developed their presentation to showcase activities using a mock Instagram post and Concept Maps, putting students at the center of their learning experience and emphasizing the use of visual components to enhance students’ writing.
