This workshop will provide World Language leaders with an overview of the revised NYS World Language standards, but more importantly, the lift that is needed to assist and support teachers in a time of change to the revised standards. How do you win the hearts and minds of our teachers to bring about the successful enactment of the revised standards? This is one of several workshops that will be provided to assist leaders in understanding the work ahead to bring to life the revised standards.
Presenters:
Candace R. Black, World Language Associate, NYSED Office of Bilingual Education and World Languages

The New York State Association of World Language Administrators (NYSAWLA) in collaboration with the New York State Education Department’s Office of Bilingual Education and World Languages (NYSED OBE-WL) is offering a free, online workshop for world language teachers and administrators working in New York State schools. This workshop, “Curating Authentic Resources for the World Language Classroom,” will be presented by Leslie Grahn, a noted leader, presenter, author, and blogger in the field of world language education. We will explore and discuss “authentic texts”: what they are; ways to find, organize and curate them; and how to use them for intentional skill-building with students.
