In an effort to expand the presence and visibility of our organization at major conferences, AAUSC would like to sponsor a session at the 2010
AATSP conference in Guadalajara, México. The exact dates have not been set yet, but the conference is normally held in early July.
Ideally, the topic of our session would be consistent with either the theme of the AAUSC panel at
ACTFL (online/hybrid teaching), or the
AAUSC 2010 volume (Critical and Intercultural Theory and Language Pedagogy). We could even sponsor two sessions if there is enough interest. Please contact
Fernando Rubio if you have any suggestions or if you would like to help set up a session.
Foreign Language and Culture Assistants in Spain
As in previous years, the Ministry of Education of Spain is accepting applicants for the Foreign Language and Culture Assistants program. The minimum requirement is junior status in a Spanish BA program, but recent graduates of both the BA and MA also qualify. This year the program will accept over 1,200 assistants. The deadline for application is April 15. For more information visit the
Ministry's webpage.
