Foreign Language Annals

 
Foreign Language Annals is proud to introduce its latest special issue! This issue was born out of the ACTFL Research Priorities Initiative, designed to (1) identify the key areas in which research is currently needed in foreign language instruction and learning to inform and improve classroom practice; (2) attract researchers to conduct research in these key areas; and (3) sponsor this research through funding, publication, and dissemination of research findings to the field and other stakeholders.

The special issue includes nine review articles around four important themes:

1. Classroom discourse and the role of talk in language learning and development

2. Integrating meaningful content (academic, cultural, textual, etc.) with language instruction

3. Making connections between teacher knowledge, classroom practices, and student outcomes for multiple goals of language learning

4. The need for research on teacher preparation
