Two of my doctoral advisees have been awarded travel grants by the College of Education and Human Ecology Office of Research. Minseok Choi will present at the Literacy Research Association’s 68th Annual Conference on his research on Critique as a pedagogical practice, examining how critique practice creates learning opportunities in a fine arts studio. Afida Safriani will present with Dr. Francis Troyan at the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) on their research on mediation in teacher candidates’ learning of functional linguistics. Congratulations!
