SUMMARY:Forging Connections: Balancing Individual and Collaborative Practices in FSL Education
DESCRIPTION:CASLT FSL Research Exchange\nWelcome to the next installment of the CASLT FSL Research Exchange – an engaging virtual platform dedicated to pushing our thinking related to key areas in French as a Second Language (FSL) research. Building on the rich discussion and engagement in our exchanges to date\, we will continue exploring the pivotal challenges facing FSL educators. \nOur fourth event in the series promises to be a thought-provoking exploration of the relational dynamics within FSL education. \nJoin us as we navigate Gap #4: Teaching as an Individual vs. Relational Process from our recently published report\, Identifying Requirements and Gaps in French as a Second Language (FSL) Teacher Education: Recommendations and Guidelines. \nForging Connections: Balancing Individual and Collaborative Practices in FSL Education\nFeatured Presenter: Dr. Sarah Mercer (Professor and Department Head\, University of Graz) \nIn this session\, Dr. Sarah Mercer will join us as we explore the individual and relational aspects of FSL teaching. Leveraging her expertise in teacher psychology\, pre-service teacher identity development\, socio-emotional intelligence\, and well-being\, Sarah will delve into the complexities of this issue\, offering fresh perspectives on the challenges and opportunities arising from attempts to balance individualized teaching approaches with the need for collaborative\, relational practices in FSL education. Sarah will also highlight key questions for researchers\, aiming to inspire new insights and innovative solutions for addressing this challenge in FSL education. \nResearch Exchange Agenda\nWelcome and Introductions \nA warm welcome and introductions will help us set the tone for an enriching exchange of ideas. \nFeatured Presenter \nDelve into this theme with a distinguished presenter who will share their insights and make connections to relevant research and experiences. Our goal is to push our thinking beyond the “usual” questions/issues linked to the theme. Our featured presenters bring significant wisdom and experience from extensive work in FSL/L+ education. \nGuided Discussion: Opportunities for Collaboration and Building Bridges in Research \nFollowing our opening discussion with Dr. Mercer\, we invite attendees to engage in a vibrant conversation. We will explore guiding questions that encourage participants to share their thoughts\, experiences\, and ideas. \nWhy Attend?\nConnect With Peers: Engage with fellow researchers who share your passion for FSL education and are dedicated to advancing the field in meaningful ways. \nInspiring Insights: Explore ways of shifting the conversation about FSL education in Canada beyond our usual thinking. \nInteractive Dialogue: Participate in lively discussions\, sharing your thoughts and learning from others. \nOpportunities for Collaboration: Discover potential research partners and avenues for impactful projects.
