CASLS is excited to welcome three additions to the team!

Renee Marshall is working with CASLS part time as a Curriculum Consultant. Renee completed her MA in Romance Languages at the University of Oregon in 2014 and has taught Spanish and French at the high school level and will be working on many of CASLS' curriculum development and support projects. Renee's favorite thing about working at CASLS is "being part of the community and knowing that I am contributing to the field of language teaching and learning."

Patricia Roldán Marcos comes to CASLS as an MA student in the Language Teaching Specialization program in the UO Department of Linguistics. She will be focusing on curriculum design, classroom implementation support, and professional development. Patricia says of CASLS, "Working at CASLS means a lot to me. It's a great opportunity to grow professionally and gain experience in the language teaching world in the US. It's fascinating to have a non-teaching position for a change and I'm looking forward to contributing to, and learning from, everyone here!"

Jeff Whitaker is an MA student in Psychology working with CASLS on research and design for curricular projects involving measuring social engagement. He will be working on Human Subjects protocols, assisting in research design, and collecting and analyzing data about teaching and learning. Jeff says, "I am excited to be using psychological research findings in an applied setting to aid students in second language acquisition."

We are excited to have Renee, Patricia and Jeff at CASLS and look forward to working with them!
