=21st Century Skills & World Languages: Building Connections and Collaboration=

Saturday, Oct. 22 9:45am-10:45am and 11am-noon
//Many people think technology when they hear the words “21st Century Skills.” Many people think grammar-translation when they hear the words foreign language. While technology and grammar are components of both phrases, let’s focus our perspective. Think collaboration. Think critical thinking. Think self-reflection and meaningful connections. Such skills are not new ideas, but they are the core of 21st century skills and world languages. As educators, these are the skills that are to be developed in students for all content areas. Come see how world languages provide a unique and valuable partnership to lay the foundation of a global perspective so that all students will be able to collaborate and communicate in our 21st century world.// 2011 Fall Conference Schedule Article about conference
