Teaching Italian Symposium/Workshop X: “Made in Italy as a Tool for Language Learning”
Posted in: Uncategorized
Keynote address: Riccardo Giumelli, Universita` di Verona
The theme for our tenth anniversary “Teaching Italian Symposium/Workshops” was “Made in Italy as a Tool for Language Learning.” In addition to the intensive hands-on workshops on innovative techniques for incorporating the “Made in Italy” concept into teachers’ classrooms, the all-day event featured an excellent keynote address by Prof. Riccardo Giumelli (Universita di Verona) and a very special presentation by Maurizio Forte, Director of the Italian Trade Agency of the Consulate General of Italy in New York. Kicking off the day was an admittedly sentimental slideshow of presenters from Teaching Italian I through Teaching Italian IX (2008-2016) offering their reflections and congratulations on our having reached this significant milestone, il decimo anniversario!
