Modeling Unit Design: UN Sustainable Development Goals & Intercultural Citizenship
Participants examine model units, grounded in authentic United Nations SDGs in which students build intercultural citizenship by addressing environmental challenges. Models of learning progressions at both Novice and Intermediate levels show how students build intercultural communicative competence solving real world problems through action projects. These units serve as models to illustrate the learning activities that build toward the summative tasks. Teachers discuss learning opportunities that allow students to apply communicative competence in action projects addressing environmental problems while demonstrating intercultural citizenship skills.

Feedforward: What Teachers and Learners Can Learn from Assessments
Has your teacher heart ever sunk at the sight of a discarded assessment that’s covered in valuable feedback? This session explores how teachers and learners can get more out assessments - after they’ve happened! First, learn to revise your teaching plan when an assessment fails in order to discover what students know or can do. Next, examine how to differentiate instruction post-assessment based on students’ performances. Finally, incorporate opportunities for “feedforward” which prompt student reflection and targeted action.

Let's get out there. Engaging our students in their communities
Many students choose to study a language, because they want to use it for their enjoyment and advancement in their communities. In this session we explore using Communities standard to engage students, present them with real world opportunities to use their newly acquired language in their schools and communities. During the height of the pandemic, many people disengaged from the community. We re-examine how local communities can be a language learning resource and how learners can use their language skills in their communities.

A Study of Stakeholder Perceptions of a "Language Learning Assistant Program"
Focus of this research presentation is a peer-mentoring model in which advanced-level language students serve as “Learning Assistants” (LAs) in beginning-level language courses. Language LAs provide assistance in first-year language courses by modeling tasks, facilitating collaborative learning, and inspiring students to continue language study. Following a brief summary of relevant “curricular peer-mentoring” scholarship, the presenter analyzes the results of an empirical study examining participants’ perceptions of a pilot “Language LA” program. Session participants gain knowledge of peer-mentoring research, consider implications of the study, and get advice and resources for starting a Language LA program.

Active Explicit Vocabulary Recall in the Intensive Intermediate Language Classroom
Our presentation examines the correlation between student performance on formal written exams and active, explicit vocabulary recall activities performed at the beginning of class in the Intensive Intermediate Spanish classroom. Our study derived from a need to address the overall lack of foundational vocabulary for students who take a placement exam and begin their postsecondary language study at the Intermediate level. In the Intermediate Spanish course at our institution, vocabulary, historically, is not taught explicitly. Beginning Fall 2022, we propose the use of physically engaging ("active") recall activities to improve student vocabulary knowledge. We measure their performance on the vocabulary portion of exams between Fall 2021 and 2022 to demonstrate positive correlation.

Heritage Speakers as Teachers of Spanish: Experiences and Challenges
Research that addresses the needs of heritage speakers of Spanish as in-service teachers is required as they incorporate into the teaching profession as world language teachers of their own heritage language. This research used a qualitative multiple case study design to explore the experiences as teachers of eight Latina heritage speakers. The methods of data collection included interviews, classroom observations, and a focus group. The study sought to answer these research questions: What motivates heritage speakers to stay in the profession? What challenges do they experience as teachers of Spanish? What are their professional development needs? How do their perceptions and attitudes about their use of Spanish evolve from pre to in-service teachers?

Learning Social Dialects by Accessing Diverse Perspectives through Media
This presentation aims to find out how and to what extent it would be desirable to educate advanced learners about the Korean regional and social dialects. The research has focused on the necessity of regional language and culture and social dialects for immigrants and international students. And, it is meaningful in that it considered how far and best for advanced Korean learners to learn the various dialects and discussed the direction in which Korean language and culture education for the dialects should go. Therefore, in this presentation, presenters will investigate how advanced learners perceive the dialects of the Korean language and culture curricula by implementing multimedia and technologies and how they think about the practical needs in order to enhance their multiliteracies.

Overcoming Barriers to K-16 Program Articulation
To develop high levels of language proficiency, students must be able to move from secondary to post-secondary language programs and continue building their language skills. Effective K-16 articulation is facilitated by state-level policies, incentives including the Seal of Biliteracy, and the policies and practices of institutions and language programs.

Teacher Perceptions of Inclusion in Online Instructional Practices
The purpose of this study is to explore world language teacher perceptions of inclusion in online instructional practices. Data were collected from semi-structured interviews conducted with six world language teachers in one large public school district during the 2020-2021 academic year. Four of six teachers described practices that incorporate racial and ethnic diversity in curricula, and five teachers expressed uncertainty about how to integrate diverse gender and sexual identities in their practices. Teachers found the support of world language colleagues instrumental in adapting their practices to be delivered online. Findings hold practical implications for teachers and teacher educators who aim to develop inclusive instructional practices in online settings.

Interculturality: Helping Students Understand Identity
How can we move beyond sporadically teaching about culture and identity, and integrate these concepts into our lessons on a daily basis? This session will explore interculturality and identity in the language classroom and demonstrate some simple strategies for making important cultural connections and comparisons. We will also look at how EntreCulturas and EntreCultures from Wayside Publishing help teachers achieve their interculturality goals while also focusing on language acquisition.
