The English Language Center (ELC) team prepared this guide to assist you as you prepare for, work on, and submit your Immersion Vanderbilt project. This guide will also connect you with additional ELC resources and demonstrate how the ELC can help you throughout the various stages of your Immersion project.
The “ELC Guide: The Culture and Language of Immersion Vanderbilt” resource was developed to provide you with the strategies to more fully participate in Immersion Vanderbilt by:
- increasing your understanding of the purpose and benefits of Immersion Vanderbilt;
- understanding linguistic and cultural concepts for more effectively navigating Immersion Vanderbilt; and
- applying language and academic skills for completing Immersion Vanderbilt successfully.
