Research has found that very few higher education faculty members incorporate ACTFL standards in the classes that they teach. These standards can be helpful in improving the FL programs in higher education. They can also help prevent the disconnect that tends to happen between the high school programs and the higher education FL programs. Not only will you learn why you should incorporate these standards into your existing program, but you will also learn how to do it. Each participant will leave with ideas for incorporating these into your class without adding a lot of extra work.
