TALL-IL 2.0
JULY 8-11, 2014
ICTFL World Language Regional Teacher Leader Search – Class of 2014
Planning for Student Growth: The Unit Design and Performance Assessment
ACTFL Guest Trainers: Donna Clementi and Laura Terrill, co-authors of The Keys to Planning for Learning (ACTFL)
Under the Illinois School Code, Senate Bill 7, “Performance Evaluation Reform Act” (PERA), Illinois School Districts must adopt guidelines to measure and document student growth as part of each teacher’s evaluation process. To support Illinois foreign language teachers and programs, ICTFL and ACTFL are collaborating through a performance-based assessment model so teachers will know how to design the unit as a part of a design curriculum that demonstrates student growth and documents language proficiency.
The Illinois Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ICTFL), in collaboration with the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL), invites you to be part of an exciting statewide world language initiative. We seek teachers who are interested in becoming regional leaders in standards-based instruction and assessment in world languages. If you are selected, training will be provided (details below) and then you will take what you’ve learned, apply it in your classroom and share it with other world language educators in your region of the state. It is anticipated that ICTFL will select and sponsor 25 Teacher Leaders for the Class of 2014 and open the training to an additional paying 75 Teacher Particpants.

Title: Online Coins of the Roman Empire Website
Body:
From http://numismatics.org/ocre
Online Coins of the Roman Empire (OCRE), a joint project of the American Numismatic Society and the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World, at New York University is creating a revolutionary new tool designed to help in the identification, cataloguing, and research of the rich and varied coinage of the Roman Empire. The project will ultimately record every published type of Roman Imperial Coinage from Augustus in 31 BC, until the death of Zeno in AD 491. This will create an easy to use digital corpus, with downloadable catalogue entries, incorporating almost 50,000 types of coins.
To date, more than 15,000 coin types are described, from 30 BC until AD 211, effectively covering the entire High Empire until the death of Septimius Severus.
The current version provides links to examples present in the ANS collection, the Roman Imperial collection of the Münzkabinett of the State Museum of Berlin and the University of Virginia Art Museum. Between these three collections, OCRE is now able to illustrate 50% of the imperial coin types that it contains. Moving forward, as more collections join the project, it will eventually incorporate and display almost all recorded Roman Imperial coin-types.
OCRE also allows users to search in 10 languages other than English, made possible by Nomisma.org's linked open data technologies.
OCRE can now link to another ANS developed resource, Coin Hoards of the Roman Republic. This enables OCRE to draw on findspot data for some early imperial coin types, and map their distribution.
Visit the website at http://numismatics.org/ocre to get started.
