The theme for the 2013 conference, "Sunshine and Cloud Apps: The Next Generation in Language Learning Technology," reflects both the atmosphere of Florida, "The Sunshine State", as well as a glance into the future with the wide use of "Apps" that are already
making their mark with the next generation of language users in global social networks and seamless, mobile technologies.The hosts of the conference, Pine Crest School and Florida Atlantic University, are culturally diverse campuses which pride themselves
in second-language acquisition.As the first K-12 host school in IALLT history, we are proud to announce that Yo Azama, 2012 ACTFL Teacher of the Year, will be our Keynote Speaker.
