Presented at the FLAG (Foreign Language) conference on March 5, 2016, this presentation shares with teachers a variety of different platforms that are available for enhancing their classroom lessons. Language acquisition is just a part of the story for students trying to learn another language. It is also critical that they develop an understanding and an appreciation of that culture, along with being able to see the similarities and differences that exist. In order for students to truly develop a global connection, they must have experiences that immerse them into the language, culture, and people.

Editor's Notes
- CommunicationThe communication standard stresses the use of language for communication in "real life" situations. It emphasizes "what students can do with language" rather than "what they know about language." Students are asked to communicate in oral and written form, interpret oral and written messages, show cultural understanding when they communicate, and present oral and written information to various audiences for a variety of purposes.CulturesCultural understanding is an important part of world languages education. Experiencing other cultures develops a better understanding and appreciation of the relationship between languages and other cultures, as well as the student's native culture. Students become better able to understand other people's points of view, ways of life, and contributions to the world.ConnectionsWorld languages instruction must be connected with other subject areas. Content from other subject areas is integrated with world language instruction through lessons that are developed around common themes.ComparisonsStudents are encouraged to compare and contrast languages and cultures. They discover patterns, make predictions, and analyze similarities and differences across languages and cultures. Students often come to understand their native language and culture better through such comparisons.CommunitiesExtending learning experiences from the world language classroom to the home and multilingual and multicultural community emphasizes living in a global society. Activities may include: field trips, use of e-mail and the World Wide Web, clubs, exchange programs and cultural activities, school-to-work opportunities, and opportunities to hear speakers of other languages in the school and classroom.
