Summer Institute 2000 Participants
Martha M. Fraser Kelly
PhD Candidate, Slavic Languages and Literatures, Stanford University
Talks during the institute covered, along with the four basic food groups (dessert, pastries, coffee and sparkling water), a range of problems and possibilities encountered in language teaching. Speakers addressed questions of language pedagogy, effective use of multi-media- and web-based programs, and teaching the culture and language of a target country undergoing immense and rapid changes. Discussion during and after the talks proved equally fruitful.
