Projects
This project proposes using recall and repetition, corroborated by neuroscientific research to be an effective intervention in L2 learning, to advance students' oral and written French proficiencies. By implementing text and audio learning materials targeted to common challenges in the intermediate French student group, we aim to develop their overall language competencies.
