Spring 2014 Integrated Language Options (ILOs)
Integrated Language Options (ILOs) constitute the core elements of the RCAH CLAC Program. ILOs provide language immersion opportunities for students. In an ILO, students use the language to collaborate with each other and their language mentor on a semester-long project. The descriptions below detail the Spring 2014 ILO projects:

Students in a French ILO created an audio-visual book structured around the main themes in the French film Ernest and Célestine. The book includes clips and photos from the movie and brief biographical information about Gabrielle Vincent, the author of the children’s books that inspired the movie.

Ernest and Célestine.

An ILO in Kreyol Ayisyen (Haitian Creole) researched the history of Haiti (from the Haitian revolution to the Duvalier presidencies) to better understand contemporary Haiti. Students also learned about more recent events in Haiti including the first democratically elected president (President Aristide) and the devastating events of "douz janvye" the 2010 earthquake on January 12. For their final project, Libby Hoffman and Angel Snyder created a Power Point to showcase what they learned about Haiti. They conducted a presentation in Kreyol Ayisyen at the RCAH 112 Showcase Spring 2014.
