Studying Spanish independently outside of the classroom
Thank you for accepting to take part in this small study where I will explore how and if you benefited from the additional materials and resources I used to share with you on our WhatsApp group. I would like you to take at least 20 minutes to answer the following questions. You are required to provide detailed descriptions, as detailed as possible. In order for you to produce such detailed descriptions, you will find guiding questions.

I may use your answers in a research publication. But there is no risk involved, your identity will not be revealed or disclosed in any way.

Thank you very much in advance.

The following are a few guiding questions to help you frame your description: Did you have a study routine? What was your study routine like? How often did you use to study Spanish? How did you plan your independent study sessions? What were your independent study sessions like? How long did they last? What did you do? Were you consistent throughout the term? Be as specific as you can be. *
2. Describe how you used the presentations I used to share with you after class. The following are a few guiding questions to help you frame your description: How did you find the presentations I used to share with you? Did you go through those presentations a) very often, b) often, c) not very often, d) rarely, e) never? What did you like about those presentations? What did you not like about those presentations?

What did you find useful about going through the class recordings? What did you like about the recordings? What did you not like about them? What did you find them useful for? Would you not attend the live sessions and wait for the recordings? If you did, tell me why :) (I won't judge you :)) *
4. We had a few additional listening exercises you had to complete independently, how did you feel about those exercises? Did you complete them? Were they helpful? What can I do to improve those kinds of exercises? *
5. What other additional resources or exercises did you have to complete independently? Did you find those useful? Why? What other resources do you suggest we use in the future to promote independent study outside of the classroom? Are there any other resources different from the ones we used that you know of and use? What are those and how do you use them? *
6. At the end you were required to produce a video and a short composition. How useful did you find these activities? What comments do you have about them? *
7. How did you find WhatsApp as a medium to share additional resources? What did you (dis)like about it? How else do you think we could use WhatsApp as an additional and alternative learning environment? Would you prefer a different medium like Google Classroom or Edmodo? Why? *
Thank you!
