2023 CCFLT Spring Conference
Reignite Your Spark

Dr. Cummings will present the topic of exploring language teaching through the lens of creativity.  Members will learn more about why creativity is important in language teaching today, engage with specific practices, various instructional moves, and multimodal strategies to support student learning, develop their target language proficiency, and expand their creative thinking.
