Thank you for your input!

We cannot thank you all enough for your feedback on InterCom over the past few weeks. As you can imagine, your opinions vary widely with lots of excitement and also some trepidation about the changes we started a few months ago in response to Covid-19 closures and immediate needs. We are currently looking at a variety of options to meet as many of your needs as possible and cannot wait to share them with you over the summer. In June, we will continue the current format. Then, in July, as is tradition, we will focus on self-care and rejuvenation. Finally, starting in August, you will start seeing a combination of the old InterCom mixed with the new.  As the world changes around us, we adapt and innovate. We thank you for joining us on the journey.

We will be talking remote/online language learning, exploring digital tools to mix things up, offering support for teachers, students, and families, and answering all of YOUR questions. Can’t join us live? We will also save the recording for later.

Thank you, as always, for your support of CASLS and InterCom, and we look forward to seeing you online!

Recap: Why does InterCom look different than what I am used to? 

Since its inception is 2005, InterCom has served as a resource of information for teachers in language learning and teaching, bringing together relevant content for educators worldwide.  Based on the needs of teachers and their students, this resource has evolved overtime with shifts from disseminating content to creating it and offering additional means to customize the information you get. Our current situation also requires a nimble response to meet the needs of those we are meant to support. 

In that spirit, in March 2020 we began shifting our weekly digest away from what you are used to seeing toward two immediate needs of the field – time saving with engaging online/remote materials and support for questions and collegial collaboration.
