Title: Article: World Language Professionalism in Changing Times
Body: From http://nclrc.org/about_teaching/topics/feature.html World Language Professionalism in Changing Times By Dr. Michael E. Everson, The University of Iowa While some observers think that K-12 teacher development programs focus only on what teachers need to know to conduct effective classroom language lessons, becoming a world language professional requires an array of skills and talents that are considerably more varied. To develop world language professionals, my recent work with prospective teachers and national planning initiatives in teacher development have led me to believe that there are three “must haves” that a world language professional must develop over time—1.) be able to communicate our discipline to others; 2.) be professionally prepared to work effectively in a variety of language learning settings involving diverse learners, and 3.) have an understanding of the use and potential of technology for language learning.

Title: Call for Papers: Journal of Northeast African Studies
Body: Michigan State University Press is pleased to announce that the journal Northeast African Studies will resume publication in 2010. The journal seeks to publish scholarly articles on all aspects of Northeast African studies, including but not limited to works in the social sciences and humanities, and we invite submissions to be considered for publication. We particularly welcome contributions that rethink established debates and paradigms in the field, address issues with comparative implications for scholars of other world regions, or draw upon new or underutilized source materials and disciplinary methodologies. For information on upcoming issue themes, please visit http://msupress.msu.edu/journals/neas . We consider Northeast Africa to include the Nile Valley, the Red Sea, and the lands adjacent to both, and so invite articles on patterns and processes that characterize the region as a whole. We hope to make Northeast African Studies an essential journal not only for other area specialists but also for those engaged in comparative and transnational studies. We will actively encourage submissions from Africa-based researchers, as well as papers based on collaborative research by African and overseas scholars. For submission details, please visit http://msupress.msu.edu/journals/neas/index.php?Page=subguide . Reynolds, J. CFP: Journal of Northeast African Studies.
