The Foreign Language Technology Program's Portfolio Intensives are coming up! The portfolio intensive is designed to help CU language faculty, instructors and TAs complete the last steps of their FLTP teaching with technology portfolio. To view past FLTP portfolios, visit http://altec.colorado.edu/fltp/portfolio_showcase.shtml If you have attended 4+ FLTP workshops you are invited to attend the Portfolio Intensive! We do ask that you attend both Saturdays or if you can only make one, that you select the first. We cover unique information on the first day that will not be repeated the second Saturday. And please plan to stay the entire day. Contact us if you have any questions or hesitations! You will receive one FLTP workshop credit for each Saturday you attend. Also, please note that this is not a required step of the FLTP. You are more than welcome to complete your professional portfolio on your own.
Here is a glimpse of what we will be covering on both days.
*Please note: there may be subtle changes to accommodate our visiting presenters.
