Experiential Module

Master's Project for the MA in Foreign Language Teaching

German Resource Hub: Resources for Communicative German Language Education

The Experiential Module (EM) is the capstone project for the MAFLT program. Projects vary from student to student, but the goal is for the student to synthesize all prior learning and experience to create something of practical pedagogical benefit to themselves and other language teachers. For my EM, I chose to create an organized, searchable/filterable, curated directory and collection of resources intended for communicative German language education. You can visit the website at www.GermanResourceHub.com, and below you can find my rationale and reflective essay for the EM, as well as links to a video tour of the website and the teacher's guide I created to give teachers pedagogical suggestions for using the resources.
