Title: Call for Writers: TESOL Curriculum Development Series
Body: From: http://www.tesol.org/s_tesol/sec_document.asp?CID=6&DID=1023 The TESOL Curriculum Development Series is an eight-volume series that encompasses the range of program and curriculum development undertaken in the field of TESOL throughout the world. The aim of the series is to help administrators and teachers develop and hone the understanding and skills necessary to develop successful courses, curricula, and programs. The series is built around broad curriculum development challenges rather than more narrowly defined subject matter or contexts. The series examines curriculum development ranging from specific courses to broader curricula and programs. There are two parallel sets of volumes in the series. Volumes 1-4 are about curriculum design for school age language learners, and Volumes 5-8 are about curriculum design for adult language learners. Volume 1 and Volume 5: Designing a New Language Course Volume 2 and Volume 6: Developing a New Curriculum or Program Volume 3 and Volume 7: Planning and Teaching Creatively Within a Required Curriculum Volume 4 and Volume 8: Revitalizing an Established Program The series is looking for contributions from a broad spectrum of practitioners from around the world who have experienced the complex, often confusing, always challenging, and ultimately rewarding process of successfully developing a new course, curriculum, or program. We are seeking personal- not clinical--accounts of the process. For specific information about each volume and its requirements, please see the description of each volume. Because curriculum development efforts are often collaborative, chapters may be coauthored. For more information, visit: http://www.tesol.org/s_tesol/sec_document.asp?CID=6&DID=1023#4
