Title: Article: Teaching in the Target Language
Body: From http://nclrc.org/about_teaching/topics/feature.html#new The February 2011 issue of the NCLRC Newsletter includes an excellent article by Helena Curtain: Teaching in the Target Language. Here’s an excerpt: “The central task for the language teacher is to create a communicative climate focused on meaning, within which language acquisition can take place naturally. The key to creating this climate is using the target language! When learners are surrounded with their new language 90 to 95 to 100 percent of the class time, and when teachers use the language for all classroom purposes, language use has a purpose and there is motivation to learn.” Read the full article at http://nclrc.org/about_teaching/topics/feature.html#new

Title: The University of Texas Africa Conference
Body: From http://www.utexas.edu/conferences/africa/2011/11Home.html 2011 Africa Conference Dates: March 25-27, 2011 Venue: The University of Texas at Austin The goal of this conference is to create an interdisciplinary dialogue concerning Africa’s contemporary and historical place in world politics. Africa is too often regarded as being on the periphery of the world political arena, when in fact the nations of Africa have played an important, although often tactically manipulated, role in global affairs.

Title: Southern Conference on Slavic Studies (SCSS) 49th Annual Meeting
Body: From http://mblog.lib.umich.edu/CREES/archives/2010/10/conference_49th.html "Old Town" Alexandria in Northern Virginia will be the site of the 49th annual conference of the Southern Conference on Slavic Studies (SCSS) on 7-9 April 2011. Hosted by George Mason University’s Center for Eurasian Studies, it will meet at the new Westin Alexandria hotel in Alexandria, VA. The SCSS is the largest of the ASEEES’s regional Slavic and Eurasian studies affiliates and the oldest (older than ASEEES itself). Its programs attract national and international scholarly participation. SCSS looks forward to the usual wide variety of interesting panels, but also want to address two special themes. One is "Twenty Years After the Collapse" to mark the 20th anniversary of the end of the Soviet Union. The other is "Vasily Aksenov, His Work and Times," to mark the recent death of a man who was one of the most important literary and cultural figures of post-Stalin Russia and also a distinguished professor of Russian literature and culture at George Mason from 1987-2004. In addition to panels, the conference features a plenary session, a banquet address by a prominent scholar, and awards for best undergraduate and graduate papers, best book by a SCSS member, and a special Senior Scholar Award, among other activities.
