Active Learning and Communication in the World Language Classroom

The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) has recently published an article in the monthly national journal, The Language Educator. 
The article,  "Planning for Active Learning and Communication"  is  a culmination of 4 years of hard work, data collection and analysis  completed by Mr. Juan Jose Vasquez-Caballero, LOLHS' own Spanish Teacher!  In this article Mr. Vazquez eloquently explains how setting SMART goals, self-assessing and ultimately taking control of one's learning has a clear impact on teaching and learning.  You can find the article by following the link above (The Language Educator/ page 48). Enjoy!
