Recent student news:

In Fall 2024, students in 502 Linguistic Structure of Spanish completed a mini-analysis as a class of variable adjective placement in U.S. Spanish blogs. See the attached PDF for their findings!

During the Winter 2021 session, I taught a course titled "Project-based learning in the language classroom". In this course, I implemented a project-based learning approach to teach students about project-based learning. They had to create a website about this teaching methodology, as well as project-based materials for the (additional) language classroom. Here are some of their websites below:
                      Ava and Holly:  hquintana8.wixsite.com/allaboutpbl
                      Karina and Liv: pblanguagelearning.weebly.com/

Check out some of the research posters from my students' final projects in my Spring 2019 History of the Spanish Language course:
                      Use of passive se versus the periphrastic passive in Spanish over time
                      Subject-verb word order in Spanish over time
                      
Check out some of my students' work from my Fall 2018 Conversation and Oral Grammar course for their        
creative project:
                      Guácala - ¡qué asco! A song written by one of my students.
