Week 12-13: In France…
These two weeks, I am in France presenting about this project at an international conference on the use of technology to teach culture in foreign language classrooms. You think I am on topic? I attended the class through webcams from the other side of the Atlantic. Students were quite amused to be able to see me on the same classroom as their partners. It was a good chance to visit with the French students as well and talk to them in person. I was also able to teach my classes through videoconferencing. No more canceling classes to go to conferences! ☺
The conference went well. Good feedback from the audience on the assessment procedure and the project in general. Perhaps future collaborations in the making…
I took advantage of this trip to bring objects from the UT students for our upcoming object exchange. I also received lots of objects from the ENSEIRB students to take back to UT.
