The purpose of this full-day workshop is to educate prospective program reviewers for the new ACTFL/NCATE Program Standards for the Preparation of Foreign Language Teachers. Participants will become familiar with the standards and will learn how to evaluate institutional program reports for evidence that the standards have been achieved. They will engage in hands-on work in analyzing candidate performance evidence, required program components, the program assessment system, and program reviewer rubrics, in order to make program approval decisions and prepare the program reviewer report for submission to NCATE. This workshop is open only to those who have applied or plan to apply to be ACTFL/NCATE Program Reviewers.
