I think the more comfortable I feel about teaching, the more flexible I become about content. This Spring, while at the Northeast Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages, I attended a presentation from one of my NH colleagues. Her presentation was about a project on gender issues in Spanish-speaking countries. At the end of the presentation, she invited teachers to join the project. I thought this was a great learning opportunity for my students in my Spanish American Culture and Civilization course.  I invited my colleague to share her project with my students. At the end of her presentation, they were very interested in participating. I struggled for several weeks to  to adapt her project to my course lessons, our resources, and timeline. Finally, I created a mini-unit on gender topics. The students decided they want to conduct interviews with Hispanic women for their final product of the project. As a class, we created about 13 questions. Since some of the students are heritage speakers, they will interview some of their female relatives. The interview along with a reflection is replacing an essay about the Conquest of Colonization of the Americas that I had originally planned.
