    "title": "Fostering Intellectual Investment and Foreign Language Learning Through Role-Immersion Pedagogy",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Recent  scholarship has highlighted the importance of increasing the intellectual  viability of lower-level foreign language (FL) study while facilitating  connections between academic practice, learners’ lives, and global  communities. This article reports on a content-based role-immersion simulation  (RIS) designed to incite a critical orientation toward language learning, as 16  postsecondary intermediate Spanish learners adopted alternate identities and  took part in a culturally grounded scenario centering on resolving problems  related to drug trafficking and violence at the U.S.-Mexico border. Self-reported  data from this qualitative study reveal that a majority of participants  considered the simulation to approximate an intellectually stimulating real-world  immersive encounter; however, some learners approached it as a  language-learning exercise. The article elaborates on criteria that  contributed to these divergent perceptions and concludes with implications for  foreign language curriculum design.",
