Purpose
The purpose of the lab is to help you improve your Language skills. It is the BEST place to come to complete your Conversation Logs as well.
This semester we will offer different types of activities in the lab that will allow you to work on those skills. The lab is for students of ALL languages taught in the Department of Languages and Linguistics. Please visit with your instructor for clarification on how participating in the lab will help you in their courses.

Please see the available times below indicated for tutoring help and conversation activities in your specific language.
FOR STUDENTS IN SPANISH CLASSES:
OPEN LAB (LABORATORIO ABIERTO)
Open lab is a time for you to come to the lab and receive help on your homework and other activities in MySpanishLab. Record your participation on the appropriate LAB PASSPORT with the time stamp and have a lab assistant initial your card. 60 MINUTES OF WORK IN THE OPEN LAB IS WORTH 5 POINTS.
CONVERSATION CORNER (RINCÓN DE CONVERSACIÓN)
The Conversation Corner is a time for you to practice your speaking skills. When you come to the Rincón de Conversación, Record your participation on the appropriate LAB PASSPORT with the time stamp and have a lab assistant initial your card. 60 MINUTES OF WORK IN THE RINCÓN DE CONVERSACIÓN IS WORTH 10 POINTS.
As you can see, we are hopeful that you will come and spend time practicing your Spanish in the Rincón de Conversación.
For those taking Spanish, as you know on your Syllabus, there is a requirement to keep a Spanish Conversation Log and turn in 6 entries of that log. The requirement for the log is to complete between 30-60 minutes of conversation with a friend, family member, co-worker, people in the Spanish Lab, or other approved activities on campus. The Rincón de Conversación is the perfect place for you to fulfill that requirement and improve your skills.
