Professor Erin Díaz received an M.A. in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) along with an M.A. and Ph.D. in Hispanic Linguistics with a concentration in Second Language Acquisition, Pedagogy and Sociolinguistics from Indiana University in Bloomington, IN. She has co-authored several chapters about her research in acquiring the Spanish subjunctive and in delivering instruction in virtual contexts. She is a recent recipient of a Mellon Digital Humanities grant for her work on creating three websites focusing on the Spanish subjunctive/indicative, preterit/imperfect and object pronouns that serve as instructional interventions for learners and as a data collection tool for researchers. She has published in Hispania on her work in incorporating campus art museums into the foreign language curriculum and recently was part of a team that accepted an award from the PSMLA for the Trout Gallery’s innovative work with foreign languages. She teaches language classes and upper level linguistics courses in addition to running Dickinson’s Spanish language program.
