News and photos from our Dissertation Show

First of all we would like to thank all our students for making this year's Dissertation Show a success! The Dissertation Show has been scheduled for only one hour, but due to the increased interest it lasted nearly two hours! We had the opportunity to watch five presentations and discuss the what's, why's, and how's of each one. Presenters did their best to inform their audience about the specifics of their dissertation and addressed questions effectively.
Towards the end of the Dissertation Show, every student contributed five words that best described his/her experience of doing the dissertation. Surprisingly enough, as it has been noted by the programme Director, Dr. Cecilia Goria, the collection featured positive words to a great extent. It seems that the experience is overall positive for each one of our students! Needless to say that this makes tutors of the Master of Arts in Digital Technologies for Language Teaching programme particularly happy and proud for their work!

Looking forward for next year's Dissertation Show!
