Advancing English Language Teaching through TESOL Standards

The standards-based reform movement has had a board impact upon all areas of education. TESOL International Association has led the way in advancing expertise in the English language teaching (ELT) field through the development of standards for many different areas of ELT. This presentation will provide an overview of the different standards for teachers, learners, and programs developed by TESOL, and explain how they can be used to enhance your teaching.

Advancing Educator Leadership through Advocacy

Educators play a critical role in improving the lives of their students, and in developing civil society as a whole. To be most effective, educators must seek out ways to shape the policies that impact their programs, their jobs, and their students’ lives. By influencing policy through advocacy, educators can develop important leadership skills that can enhance their professional lives. This interactive workshop will provide information on how educators can develop the skills to be a better advocate for their students, their program, and their field.
