In our final episode of the semester, we chat about what has worked, what hasn’t, and what we’ve learned so far this school year! rss.com/podcasts/sla...

It was delightful to meet listeners at #ACTFL25! We'll have a semester wrap up episode next week that doesn't touch on ACTFL (we had to record it early, holidays, ya know), and then we'll be looking forward to new episodes in the new year. What topics would you like to learn more about and discuss?

Exhibit hall just opened at #ACTFL25!!!

Look! Our podcast buddies from “Conversations About Language Teaching”! conversationsaboutlanguage.buzzsprout.com

Girlbosses, who’s out at #ACTFL25??? If you see Ben (pictured), come say hi!!!

If you're heading to #ACTFL25, I hope to see you there! In the podcast, I give the wrong time for my ACTFL presentation. I'll be presenting with Esme Mora and Kristi Lentz of @languageboard.bsky.social on Friday at 4:30 in room 213. Our topic: Curating Diverse and Inclusive Classroom Libraries.

This week’s episode is a wrap up of the book study we just completed - with special guest @stacywitkowski.bsky.social ! Take a listen on your way to #ACTFL25…! rss.com/podcasts/sla...

This chapter was focused on building some basic background knowledge about proficiency-based instruction, including the ACTFL proficiency pyramid and the ACTFL five Cs. The authors also clearly spelled out what IS and is NOT their goal: Teaching grammar, as a concept, in context. #LangChat
