Announcing the 2021 CLTA-CWLP Summer Seminar
CLTA’s First Virtual Conference was a Success!
The 32nd annual CLTA-CWLP Summer Seminar will be July 16-21 this year. Given that we are still under COVID restrictions, the seminar will be virtual. We are working on a fabulous list of Keynote speakers, to be announced once they are finalized.
This year’s theme is The Socially Just World Language Classroom; Social-Emotional Learning and Framework-Aligned Practice
As for past seminars, we will offer diverse strands. Participants will meet in the morning for a keynote address, followed by time in strands.
And of course, no Summer Seminar could ever be complete without some time for fun and networking! Even though we cannot be together on the UCSB campus this summer, we will nevertheless plan for some social activities designed to allow us to enjoy time together.
And next year, we will return to Santa Barbara for the 33rd annual Summer Seminar!
We look forward to our time together with you! Please mark your calendars and stay posted! We will soon have more details for you about the keynote speakers, registration, and much more!
