"Neuroeducation teaches us that each brain is unique, therefore, it is essential to adapt our teaching strategies to address the individual needs of our students in the study of literature." 💡 One of our ISP teachers recently attended the 10th edition of the PAIS Conference, an annual event where international schools in Panama gather with the mission to improve education through a network of trust. Thank you Ma. Alexandra Muñoz, DP Spanish Teacher / Spanish Coordinator at Boston School International - Panama, for sharing your experience as a speaker to talk about Neuroeducation and literature in the classroom.

I want to share this petition, primarily for the Valparaiso University alums in the network, but also for anyone who’s benefitted from language learning or study abroad. In short, my Alma Mater is planning to cut all language programs as majors from the curriculum as budget cuts. I stand staunchly against this decision. Higher education experiences (particularly in the USA) are designed holistically, to impact all aspects of students’ professional development towards entering both the workforce and civil society. Similarly, language acquisition is not merely the transferral of knowledge, but the making of an identity. And how is this identity made? By introducing the possibility of entering new worlds of culture, literature, and most importantly - dialogue across nations and borders. Language learning inspires a curiosity to encounter and know the “other”. When you take away this opportunity, you quench a would-be light. I would not be in my current position without the education and opportunities afforded to me by Valparaiso University and in particular its German department. As an international educator, I hope that the administrative staff will reconsider this decision. If any part of this Plädoyer spoke to you, please help by filling out the brief petition here: https://lnkd.in/eUGA8VRd
