IVC, Chiavi di Lettura method: Language Acquistion Through Cultural Immersion [Asynchronous]

Italian Studies at Emory University has devised a teaching method that utilizes inductive teaching strategies and the combination of a written and E-Book interdisciplinary textbook aimed at teaching students how to learn grammatical structures and interpret the cultural information embedded in these structures. The I.V.C., Chiavi di lettura method is presented to students through the window of an existing study abroad program at Emory. Video clips, photographs, paintings, music, literary texts, film, and interviews meaningfully bring the culture and language to students. Distance learning technology allows for collaborative initiatives such as the one currently being conducted between Emory University and U.N.C.C. The project comes at a time when there is an increased national emphasis on curriculum structure, teaching methodologies, and technology learning environments and their relation to real-world applications.
