After completing their faculty-mentored research, SEHD students had the opportunity to showcase their work on April 25 at the Leo D. Mahoney Arena. Two students have been interviewed about their research and are profiled below.
Max Limric ’25, Spanish and English Major, Minoring in Educational Studies
What was your presentation on?
"My presentation was titled: 'Spanish My First Language, / Bachata a Reminder of the Power of My Body'; Exploring YA Texts for Spanish-Speaking Students. I presented my preliminary findings on a hand-picked collection of diverse literature that can engage Spanish-speaking students and promote them as agentive and proficient readers, writers, and thinkers."
How was your experience at the Student Research Symposium?
"Presenting alongside my faculty mentor, Dr. Bryan Ripley Crandall, I learned how to be confident in my abilities as I created a literature review and methodology, and overall became better versed in research collection and presentation. This summer, I will be working alongside Dr. Crandall at the Connecticut Writing Project as I continue to learn how to best collect data in the education field, doing so beneficially and respectfully."
