The purpose of my trip was to present a research paper on my experiences coteaching developmental writing. I presented this paper at Congreso Internacional de Educacion Superior at Universidad Nacional. While there, I also had the opportunity to speak with a graduate pedagogy class. The class were preparing to or teaching English in Costa Rica. During their practice and theory, they were practicing and theorizing over culture, acculturation, Freire, etc.
We compared Costa Rica to Texas and to U.S.A. During our conversation, we enjoyed sharing and learning with each other.
If you'd like to see pictures from my trip and from our discussion, you can find me on facebook under Jonna Kay Beck. Also, I'm following the culture-based blogs of the students from the class with which I shared.
Please stay tuned for more thoughts as I continue my own research and learning in the field of School Improvement and Adult Learning.
