TitleACTFL Releases Position Statements on World Languages and Computer Coding
Body

The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages has released two position statements to express its stance on computer coding and foreign languages.

The first position statement, “What is a World Language,” offers a concrete definition and specific criteria to determine what constitutes a world language.

The second position statement, “Supporting the Study of World Languages and Computer Science,” advocates the study of both world languages and computer science as essential but not equivalent skills. It will serve as a reference for educators and legislators alike as this topic is discussed in state legislatures.
