Lyon project center - Closing the language gap
PublicDownloadable Content
open in viewerThe Lyon, France, project center is facing difficulties with narrowing the language gap between French residents and majority English-speaking Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) students. The purpose of this report is to suggest appealing options for WPI students to learn French by analyzing four categories of options, namely university courses, informational online video sources, mobile apps, and short-term classes. Data was gathered from surveying WPI students, interviewing project center directors, and analyzing apps and live and online course options. Recommendations include: WPI students cross-registering for a French course at any of three universities in Central Massachusetts, using YouTube and/or some of the ten analyzed apps, and/or one of the four short-term classes available.
- This report represents the work of one or more WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its website without editorial or peer review.
