Janice M. Aski is Professor and Director of the Italian language program at The Ohio State University. She specializes in foreign language pedagogy and historical Italian/Romance linguistics. Her research in foreign language pedagogy has explored a variety of topics, such as testing, teaching reading at the elementary level, how first-year Italian textbooks and grammar practice activities reflect current research in second-language acquisition, and a comparison between traditional and hybrid Italian language courses. Her publications in historical Italian/Romance linguistics focus on the social, pragmatic, and cognitive aspects of phonological and morphosyntactic change.

Diane Musumeci is Associate Professor Emerita of Italian and SLATE (Second- Language Acquisition and Teacher Education) at the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign. During her academic career, her teaching, research, and publications focused on the acquisition of Italian as a second language, content-based instruction, and the history of second-language teaching. In retirement, between frequent trips to Italy to visit family, she enjoys teaching Pilates and training her two lagotto romagnolo in agility.
