Title: Ohio Credit Flexibility Guidance for World Languages
Body: From http://education.ohio.gov/GD/Templates/Pages/ODE/ODEDetail.aspx?page=3&TopicRelationID=1864&ContentID=82751&Content=98133 Senate Bill 311 (the Ohio Core legislation) raised the graduation requirements for high school students in the hope that more students would be ready to meet the demands of our global and technological age. It included among its several provisions a requirement that by March 31, 2009, the State Board of Education adopt a plan that enables “students to earn units of high school credit based on a demonstration of subject area competency, instead of or in combination with completing hours of classroom instruction.” In September, 2010, districts were to have in place a plan to award credit by proficiency. Go to http://education.ohio.gov/GD/Templates/Pages/ODE/ODEDetail.aspx?page=3&TopicRelationID=1864&ContentID=82751&Content=98133 for credit flexibility guidance documents and scroll down for the world language resources. One of the documents, Credit Flexibility and World Languages, can be downloaded from http://education.ohio.gov/GD/DocumentManagement/DocumentDownload.aspx?DocumentID=90092

Title: Book: Language Use and Language Learning in CLIL Classrooms
Body: From http://www.benjamins.com/cgi-bin/t_bookview.cgi?bookid=AALS%207 Language Use and Language Learning in CLIL Classrooms Edited by Christiane Dalton-Puffer, Tarja Nikula and Ute Smit Published by the John Benjamins Publishing Company Summary: This volume explores a highly topical issue in second and foreign language education: the spreading practice in mainstream education to teach content subjects through a foreign language. CLIL has been enthusiastically embraced as a language enrichment measure in many contexts and finally research can offer principled insights into its dynamics and potentials. The editors’ introductory and concluding chapters offer a synthesis of current CLIL research as well as a critical discussion of unresolved issues relating both to theoretical concerns and research practice. The individual contributions by authors from a range of European contexts report on current empirical research in this dynamic field. The focus of these chapters ranges from theoretical to empirical, from learning outcomes to classroom talk, examining both the written and spoken mode across secondary and tertiary educational contexts. This volume is a valuable resource not only for researchers and teachers but also for policy makers. Visit the publisher’s website at http://www.benjamins.com/cgi-bin/t_bookview.cgi?bookid=AALS%207
