Her presentation, Collaborative Learning and Participatory Strategies to Enrich Vocabulary and Oral Communication in University-Level ELE<\/strong>, focused on collaborative pedagogical approaches \u2013 mock job fairs, round tables, movie trailer creation – she has been using with students in her upper-intermediate Spanish courses.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe goal of my presentation was to transform our Spanish language classes into more narrative, cooperative, and competitive experiences, incorporating the sociocultural component,\u201d<\/em> she said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her ideas sparked strong interest from attendees, and many questions (and a lively idea exchange) followed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Janett\u2019s talk appeared under the theme of Innovative Methodologies in Spanish as a Foreign Language<\/strong> and was paired with a presentation on possible uses of artificial intelligence in teaching Spanish in open educational contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to presenting and reconnecting with Spanish language professionals from across Canada and around the world, Janett also took advantage of the opportunity to explore the historic city of Salamanca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was Janett’s second visit to the city, having presented there in 2023 as part of the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese (AATSP) Conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
