overview

Colleagues are cordially invited to participate in research task force activities and projects designed to help us achieve the following goal:

…to support a research community in a knowledge-based profession by representing its multiple perspectives; investigating and shaping its priorities; facilitating access, dissemination, and application of findings to all constituents (including the general public); and creating and maintaining links to the larger field of educational research.

In simpler terms, the task force is dedicated to the notion that all world language and culture educators should play a role in determining (1) the questions we need to answer about teaching and learning languages, (2) how they are answered and by whom, and (3) what is done with the findings.
