Communication in Action: Building Proficiency Through the Three Modes
Move students from practicing language to actually using it. Design authentic interpersonal tasks, support comprehension of authentic texts, and build meaningful presentational speaking and writing, with clear pathways toward the Seal of Biliteracy.
Listening to Our Inner Voices: Identity, Perspective, and Human Connection in the Language Classroom
Explore how language, culture, and identity shape the way learners see themselves and the world. Through authentic resources and intercultural reflection, discover human-centered approaches that nurture curiosity and cultural humility.
Communication Through Literacy: Scaffolding Reading and Writing for Proficiency and Beyond
Practical routines that bridge interpretive reading and presentational writing across proficiency levels: authentic texts at every level, mentor texts that make better writers, low-stakes writing, and feedback that drives real revision.
Multilingualism in California: Pathways, Programs, and Possibilities
Build coherent multilingual pathways from K-12 through higher education and careers: the Seal of Biliteracy, dual enrollment, community college articulation, and workforce preparation. Grounded in Global California 2030 and a bridge to the 2027 CLTA Conference.
