Measuring Linguistic Gains in Immersion Settings: Empirical Studies from Fren...CIEE
Study abroad provides students with a unique opportunity to develop foreign language skills alongside native speakers. Or does it? This panel will look at different assessment methods and tools used to measure student linguistic gains after a semester studying abroad in France, Spain, and Argentina. Special emphasis will be placed on “high-impact” practices that contribute to positive gains in language learning during study abroad experiences including homestays, direct enrollment, and community engagement.
University Preparation Course (UPC) is a highly intensive and formalized course designed to enable students with the post-secondary academic skills required to succeed in a higher learning environment.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Editor's Notes
Not everyone prov accepted will go. Process involving classes, extracurricular work.
Incompletes – indicator of laziness1st year Parttime students should wait until next summer.
Prep begins in Spring. Hit ground running. Well-prepared Confidence of feeling prepared. first day in-country, you are ready to work. You know your internship assignment, perhaps you’ve started work. Also want make connection betw classroom and field. 1. You received your class prereq in email from Fabiola.
Goal: Prepare for summer field and academic experience such that you arrive feeling prepared and confident, and you leave feeling you made the most of the experience.

How to register – N/C
Forms: Release and Emergency Contact forms must be signed and returned immediately after acceptance. Code of Conduct: A Code of Conduct will be reviewed in January and May. Travel insurance: Each student must purchase travel insurance along with their air tickets. In case of program cancellation or not being allowed into program.
June 1 and July 31: First official day for most IFPs. – Go early, stay late. Aug 21 – a few weeks after internship complete, perhaps some travel, but not too long that work starts to escape memory. Also finished before beginning semester. No Incompletes hangover Fall semester.
If not prepared to dedicate time in Spring, do not participate. Almost like 2 extra courses, or 5 coursesConsider lighter load or work schedule in Spring
Need 42 credits for degree, whether this summer or later. Variable Costs - plane fare $200 - $2,000 your scholarship rent in NY, food, local transport (subways and taxis). So you could save $1,200 money by going on IFP. “I can’t afford not to go on the IFP.”
What will you get out of IFP? Also – answer some personal / professional / academic questions:
Life-changing experience and one of most rewardingSelf Reflection – am I good field person, good researcher, feel insecure outside elementProfound understandings – development, economics, public healthSkills and experiences classroom never provide - discover new strengths and abilities, Encounter situations wholly unfamiliar to you and will learn to adapt and respond in effective ways.Cross-cultural immersion - Do not underestimate how different cultures are. Nepal, Ethiopia, Guatemala Enhances degree – MA Int Affs – pursued it deeply, willing to embrace challenges, able to cope with problems and situations.
