We will write about research and politics, trends and tendencies. With guest bloggers and voices of experience throughout the language education community, we hope to stimulate conversation about this very important topic and to provide a forum for parents, teachers, students, administrators, politicians, psychologists and other experts in the field of early language acquisition to share their perspectives. The blog is available at http://speakingintonguesfilm.info/our-blog There will be a screening of "Speaking In Tongues" next week at the NYSAFLT/NNELL Summer Institute at SUNY Oneonta in New York. The Summer Institute is from August 3-6 and there is still time to register. There is going to be a strand specifically for early language educators and also a general strand.
