Faculty Pedagogy Colloquium: Maria Laura Bocaz

In SPAN 320Q, we immerse ourselves in the wonders of the Hispanic world—from archaeological sites to vibrant cultural celebrations. In the fall semester, I experimented with a new type of final evaluation that moved beyond traditional presentations and essays. ARCGIS proved to be an ideal resource, offering an engaging, hands-on project that helped students strengthen their communicative skills in Spanish while building technological competencies.
