CFP: Practical Approaches to Teaching Culture (03/01/07; RMMLA, Oct 4-7, 2007, Calgary, Albert, Canada)

I am seeking submissions for the Rocky Mountain Modern Language Association's "Practical Approaches to Teaching Culture" panel, to be presented at the 61st annual RMMLA convention in Calgary, Alberta, Canada (October 4-7, 2007).

In today's multicultural environment, college instructors are challenged to develop lessons that increase students' understanding of culture and intercultural interaction. By integrating innovative and creative lessons into our curricula, we can engage students so that they apply the lessons they learn in the classroom to the world around them.
