Ideology, Access, And Status: Spanish-English Bilinguals In The Foreign-Language Classroom, Michael E. Rolland
Graduate Student Publications and Research
Spanish language teaching in US higher education is today generally divided between ‘foreign language’ courses for novice learners and ‘heritage language’ courses for Hispanic/Latinx students with some knowledge of the language.

Little research to date has studied ‘heritage’ speakers enrolled in ‘foreign’ language courses.

As the literature suggests, I find that these students have a generally low …

Beating The Odds: Teaching Italian Online In The Community College Environment, Giulia Guarnieri
Publications and Research

The results reveal that reconfiguring the online meetings to a lower percentage and implementing social pedagogies reduce course abandonment and favor the creation of strong learning communities. Furthermore, the data relative to the grade distribution shows no substantial difference between online courses and face-to-face instruction.
