In addition to materials and included on other pages in my portfolio, the three pieces of evidence below are assignments created throughout my coursework in the MAFLT program that I am proud of. I believe that my FLEx Conference Presentation, Unfamiliar Genre Project, and Language Awareness Unit each further demonstrate my growth as a language teacher throughout my time in the MAFLT Program.
In December 2022, I presented at the Foreign Language Excellence Exchange Virtual Conference. My presentation on Portfolio Assessment in the language classroom details the benefits and research behind portfolio assessment and how to successfully integrate portfolios as an assessment tool in the language classroom.
In FLT 841: Topics in Foreign Language Teaching I completed the Unfamiliar Genre Project throughout the semester. I chose a genre that was unfamiliar to me in my target language, analyzed the genre, and then created pedagogical materials to teach this genre in my context.
In FLT 845: Language Concepts for Foreign Language Teaching, I created a Language Awareness Unit where students use various features Voyant Tools analyze corpora in Spanish.
