Overview

"In world language teaching, there are many complementary and conflicting ideas about the ""right"" way to teach, and sometimes even about what our goals are for students. Students and teachers share a common goal of language proficiency, but teachers can only design the ""right"" work to meet that proficiency goal by focusing on the qualities that motivate and engage the students in their classrooms. Using the framework of the Schlechty Center's Design Qualities, this book guides world language teachers to craft the kinds of lessons that help student learning take flight. In addition to explaining how the philosophy of design is integral to world language teaching and learning, readers will benefit from practical examples, models, and reflection questions that they can use immediately to increase student engagement in world language learning.
