For several years Michele has been contracted by the International Student Centre at the University of Alberta to devise and deliver workshops for international exchange students.
The Expressive Voice and Body and A Dramatic Approach to Communication help participants develop an awareness of their potential to communicate with passion, power and purpose. Through active engagement in a variety of exercises participants learn how to enhance their range of vocal and physical expression, develop an awareness of the cultural expectations of the Canadian classroom and discover ways to feel confident, relaxed and able to participate more fully in their Canadian experience both on and off campus.
Michele facilitated a Teaching and Learning Enhancement Fund (TLEF) sponsored research project (2007-2010) at the University of Alberta titled "Accent Doesn’t Have To Be An Obstacle". The project was led by Prof. Elizabeth Moulton and was a collaborative effort between the Departments of Drama, Speech Pathology and Educational Psychology.
