CLP enhanced my team-work and organizational skills. It gave “building communities” a whole new meaning, and it showed me how technology can play an essential and meaningful role in language learning.

CLP got me to think what the language classroom might look like across campus in a new way. Classroom rapport between the sending and receiving campus via technology is of significance and I take joy in watching students interacting with each other in the target language despite the physical distance.

The CLP format pushes me to be thoughtful on how to revise my pedagogy in order to provide good teaching to the students on the other campus.

CLP changed my attitude and perspectives on FL classroom instruction. I no longer take things for granted, and started thinking constraints and limitations as an advantage. As a result, CLP drives me to be more flexible, creative, innovative, and collaborate with others. It also pushed me to flip my classroom to maximize the classroom interaction time.

CLP provides an opportunity to learn Less Commonly Taught Languages from experienced and dedicated instructors who constantly work on improving their teaching by incorporating both culture and latest methodology.

[The CLP] has made me more intentional in my lesson planning. I have also created more exercises for in-class work for students that I can then help them with. [It] allows students to take courses that otherwise would not be offered on their campus.

CLP is awesome. It is fun to find new technologies and to use them for teaching and assessments. I feel that I am connecting with more people, not only at our home campus, but at other campuses, too.

CLP has helped me see exactly how languages can be taught and learned in multiple formats. Teaching in contexts that are seen as non-traditional has helped me think outside of the box and find creative ways to help all my learners.

CLP has impacted my instruction in significant ways. In an effort to make language learning and practice more accessible to everyone, I am now incorporating even more technology into my class syllabi. This new technology can be used both during and outside of class time. I look forward to working with students from other campuses and to giving all students the opportunity to work with and learn from each other. CLP helps foster a greater sense of community among different campuses while promoting an increased study of foreign languages across the state.
