Great Opportunities to Present a Talk -- Deadline April 15, 2014 -- Get Involved in State Activities!
Thank you, Anita Ratwik, for the following:
Central States Conference (on
the Teaching of Foreign Languages) i.e. CSCTFL, will be in Minneapolis March
12- 14, 2015.
It is co-sponsored by MCTLC.
CSC is one of the five regional organizations of ACTFL. CSC's web address
is www.CSCTFL.org
We especially want to have
sessions for German teachers and to have good attendance by world language
teachers in Minnesota. This conference includes 17 states, and we expect close
to 1000 participants. All right in our own backyard!
Please consider presenting a
session. The website for proposals is http://www.web-reg.com/csc-prop/
The deadline for submission
is April 15, 2014. You can even do one presentation at the MCTLC
conference in October 2014 and use the same one for CSC 2015 the following
March!
This conference will also require many volunteers from
Minnesota. I will send out information as that time comes closer. Please
consider volunteering. It is one of the best ways to get to know other language
teachers and networking. Participants and presenters to CSC come from all 17
CSC members states, plus many additional states.
This year's CSC conference is in St Louis, MO, March
20-22, 2014. In preparation for CSC 2015, we are responsible for an exhibit
booth at this year's conference. We need volunteers to help staff that booth.
If any of you will be at CSC 2014 in St Louis, please consider helping staff
that booth for a couple of hours. No need to bring anything, but a smile and
energy to talk with perspective attendees who might also want information about
Minneapolis and Minnesota.
If you are willing, please contact Anita Ratwik, at ratwi001@umn.edu
Lots to think about, many opportunities.
Thank you.
Anita Ratwik
CSCTFL 2015 Local Liaison
Thank you Mark for maintaining this list for us.
