Sounds really interesting, though I'll be in the U.K. then. Maybe next time.

Topics may include:
- Integrating global skills into language curricula
- Models of teaching languages across the disciplines
- Fostering the development of intercultural competence
- Cultural exchanges with universities abroad
- Making study abroad meaningful
- Service learning (i.e. language and community)
- Language study for careers and professions
- Language for special purposes (i.e. medicine, engineering, research, business, diplomacy, music, etc...)
- Assessing global language skills

Language instructors at all levels are invited to submit proposals; all languages are welcome.
