Spring 2020 Roundtable Sessions - January 31
Title: Developing Interactive Videos for Listening Proficiency and Cultural Competence
Presenter: Anna Borovskaya-Ellis (Russian) and Stella Mattioli (Italian)
This roundtable will introduce ongoing projects in Russian and Italian language courses, which aim to enhance listening skill development, cultural competence, and engagement among students at the 1000-2000 levels. Instructor-developed videos can supplement course materials already in use, by providing relevant, current content that is appropriate to learners’ levels. Through the addition of interactive tools such as H5P, these videos can be scaffolded or accompanied by auto-generated feedback, making them useful to flipped class approaches. The presentation will include examples of interactive video exercises.
