202 level Spanish students had many restrictions on their schedules that did not allow for adequate opportunities to hear the Spanish language being used in authentic ways. 

301 level students could benefit from having additional practice improving their conversational Spanish skills.

Mystery Movie created by 301 students for use by 201 students.

Online Survey

Presented us with some unexpected challenges.

Slow student response

Little knowledge about video editing software

Many students uncomfortable behind and in front of the camera

We needed to change tactics

Use PowerPoint with narration instead of videos

Project changed focus to 301 students

Needed data for new learning goal

Verbal survey

Results indicated a need for tutorials

Record narration

“Level 301 students will demonstrate fluent conversational Spanish skills through a themed PowerPoint presentation that incorporates 10 theme specific vocabulary words, a student-created and narrated script, 10 student-designed short answer comprehension questions, and 10 student-designed grammar questions in true/false or multiple choice format.”

Whenever possible a heritage speaker was paired with a non-heritage speaker.

Eighteen 300 level Spanish Students

Implemented by Dr. Morgan Robison

Project implementation was concurrent

with development and design

Led to non-ideal sequence of tasks

With all instructional materials created

and compiled the project can be

implemented in a more logical sequence.

Following the assignments a verbal evaluation was given to the test group.
