We are happy to share the RLL220 poster session at the Foreign Language Advisory Group (FLAG) forum on Wednesday, 5/8 at the Harvard Language Center. After exploring a number of curricular frameworks (social pedagogies, multiliteracies and genre-based pedagogy, foreign languages across the curriculum, etc.), the TAs and TFs in RLL220 ("Second Language Research and Practice") were given the task of creating a course syllabus in their field of research/interest inspired by one or more of the curricular frameworks discussed in the course.

Below are the titles of the exciting new courses developed by our TAs and TFs in French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, and Chinese!
