World Languages Day is a high school outreach program of the Language Institute.

Date:

Tuesday, April 22, 2008

Locations: 

Memorial Union, 800 Langdon Street Map
Red Gym, 716 Langdon Street Map
Pyle Center, 702 Langdon Street Map            

Goal:

To provide students the opportunity to explore the diversity of world languages, literature, and culture offerings at the University and to demonstrate how learning a language intersects with and enhances an individual’s artistic, social, and career interests.

Session presenters are asked to:

  • Design and lead a 40-minute session for a high school audience of college-bound juniors and seniors. Sessions that are rated highly by high school students are interactive, integrate various activities, include film clips, or offer mini language lessons.

The Language Institute will provide:

  • Room arrangements at WLD venues (Memorial Union, Red Gym, and Pyle Center)

  • Arrangements of additional needs, such as audio/visual equipment and space requirements, to the best of our abilities when the deadline is met.
