ACT NOW
URGENT MESSAGE to CLTA Members & World Language Supporters
As you know, our new World Language Framework is now in review from the field, and after 30 days, the
California Department of Education has received only a few responses. It is essential that we express our
opinions and give much needed feedback.
Our opinions matter, even if only to say you approve of a particular chapter, or part of the Framework.
It is a very long document, so please read one or two chapters that interest you the most and use the link
below to give voice to your opinions. This Framework will impact world language and teaching for at least ten years.
The survey deadline is December 1, 2019.
Here is the link to the Framework draft chapters and online survey: https://www.cde.ca.gov/ci/fl/cf/
