Winner's Circle |
|
|
Please join me in showcasing
our students’ success stories. So many of our students are
winners in one way or another. Maybe they’ve won an award or
have graduated. Are they continuing their studies, or are they
working successfully? We all keep up with certain students from
previous classes. Why don’t we let others know what our
“graduates” in EAP classes are doing?

CURRENT PROJECTS |
|
I am part of a team that
worked on a special FIPSE grant. It was an exciting project. You can read
about it at
http://www.mdc.edu/kendall/ewriting/
.
Professor Paula Sanchez and I have just finished a Learning
Innovations Grant called
Wrangling
the Wealth of the Web: Writing WebQuests.
These great learning tools can be viewed by clicking on the
title above.
My pet
project is ESL
WAVE (Writing About Virtually Everything). The ESL
WAVE is an "ezine" (online magazine) which is dedicated to
publishing ESL student writing. Funded by a
Learning Innovations Grant as part of Miami-Dade Community
College's goal of improving student learning, this site was
created to provide a place where ESL students could go to view
their published work, learn about different cultures and
customs, and practice reading skills. |

INTERESTS |
|
I enjoy reading, listening to music, working with
crafts, and teaching. Since coming to Miami, I've
also become interested in gardening and in growing
houseplants. Becoming a grandmother has completely
changed my life, as you'll find out if you talk with me. |
