La conférence s'intitule "Translanguaging as showing-telling in digital compositions: learning from proyectos finales created by heritage speakers in college"

Court résumé en anglais :

This talk will explore digital compositions (i.e., digital collages) as spaces for identity representation through the proyectos finales produced by 22 students in a Spanish composition class for heritage/native speakers in a U.S. university. Digital collages are multimodal assemblages which include an array of elements organized and edited through digital technologies, such as tablets, computers and smartphones. Collages include combinations of photographs, emojis, written words and all kinds of overlaid adjustments created by the students individually, in order to capture their identities as U.S. Hispanics/Latinxs in 2020.  The proyecto final is discussed in terms of the decolonizing curricular innovation for courses designed for racialized, minoritized multilingual students, while advancing an approach to digital composing that engages translanguaging as showing–telling.
