The 6th C:Collaboration
With the increased awareness of the value of worldlanguage learning, collaboration is vital to make our voicestronger and unite as one to help us get the messageacross that we belong as a Core. We need to makeadministrators see that languages are no longer to beviewed as expendable electives to be eliminated in timesof financial cuts, but rather as a professional entity thatshould be expanded. In addition, as language teacherswe need to advocate for further opportunities to work andshare with other departments of an institution. In thiskeynote speech, Linda Zins-Adams will share personalstories of collaboration and report on examples onsuccessful collaboration occurring nationally amongvarious professional organizations.
Linda Zins-Adams teachesGerman at ArchbishopMoeller High School inCincinnati, OH. She is acertified and trained APconsultant, reader/tableleader, and reviewer forCollege Board and hasconducted numerous state,regional, and nationalworkshops and webinars.She has received theDistinguished Alumna fromthe University of Cincinnati, the Federal Republic ofGermany Friendship Award, and theAATG/Goethe-Institut Certificate of Merit, and recently theAward for Excellence in Foreign Language InstructionUsing Technology with IALLT (K-12). Linda is the currentpresident of the Southern Conference on LanguageTeaching (SCOLT) and during her term on the SCOLTboard she served as the SCOLTalk editor and AwardsChair.
