TitleSTARTALK 2018: Sharing Stories of the Past, Present, and Future
Body

The Fall 2018 STARTALK Conference this past weekend highlighted past successes and laid the groundwork for an engaging and thriving future. Conference sessions focused on innovative and successful strategies, activities that contribute to learner success, and celebrating the STARTALK summer programs for their achievements.

The Center for Applied Second Language Studies (CASLS) at the University of Oregon supports STARTALK through its creation and ongoing support of Pulsar, an online language proficiency portfolio powered by LinguaFolio Online. Pulsar involves mechanisms to encourage learners to engage in deep levels of reflection regarding their growth toward the learning targets (matched to the NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements) embedded within each STARTALK program. CASLS representatives were at the conference to present about approaches to utilizing student evidence to engage in ongoing programmatic iteration. CASLS would like to extend a special thank you to our co-presenter, Thomas Sauer.

STARTALK works to increase the teaching and learning of critical need world languages in the United States. For more information about STARTALK, please click here. For more information about Pulsar, please click here.
