er-se-world-language-educators/#more-455>  takes place this week in
Charlotte, NC, as part of the annual Southern Conference on Language
Teaching (SCOLT) <http://www.scolt.org/> . This event is an opportunity to
develop connections and foster collaboration among leaders of the 14 state
associations in the SCOLT region. Members from ACTFL, SCOLT, as well as
state and district supervisors will participate in the program, which occurs
on Thursday afternoon during the conference. The theme of the 2016
Leadership Luncheon is "Empowering Teachers for EPIC Growth: No Limit to
What We Can Achieve."

SANS Inc. Software and Network Solutions <http://www.sansinc.com/> , a U.S.
based company and leader in the development of networked and mobile
instructional technology for language learning, is the corporate sponsor for
this event. "SANS is pleased to continue our support for SCOLT and its
leadership initiatives to share best practices with language educators in
the Southeast region of the United States," said SANS president Ron
Remschel. "We at SANS understand the importance of ongoing collaboration to
help prepare their language students for our global society." 

"We're excited to have Thomas Sauer and Alyssa Villarreal from the Teacher
Effectiveness for Language Learning (TELL) Project
<http://www.tellproject.org/>  present to our attendees this year," said
SCOLT President, Carol Anne Costabile-Heming. The foundational centerpiece
of the TELL Project is the Teacher Effectiveness for Language Learning
Framework, which establishes those characteristics and behaviors exhibited
by model teachers.

"The SCOLT Board of Directors and I are grateful for the ongoing support and
partnership with SANS to sponsor our annual Leadership Luncheon. We have
seen a marked increase in the attendance at state conferences across the
region, and I think that the annual Leadership Luncheon continues to play a
role in that growth by providing a venue for leaders in the region to
network and share ideas," said David Jahner, SCOLT Executive Director. This
marks the fourth consecutive year that SANS has been the corporate sponsor
for this event.
