Abstract

Over the past year and a half, Professor DeLisle and I have been tackling the immense task of redesigning the curriculum for Italian III and IV without the utilization of textbooks. The entire University is working towards using open resources instead of relying on textbooks, and that is exactly what Professor DeLisle and I set out to do. Throughout my presentation, you will see the materials we created, the obstacles we faced, and all the research that went into the creation of these new courses.
