  • Call for 2017-18 Research Project Proposals

    The ACTFL Research Priorities Project supports empirical research on six priority areas that are currently critical to improving foreign language education. Proposals can initiate a new research study, support/expand a study under way, or explore an emerging research area that is connected to one or more Research Priority areas. The research grants are funded by ACTFL. 

    The five priority areas are:

    Integration of Language, Culture, and Content
    Foreign Language Teacher Development
    Classroom Discourse
    High-Performing Language Programs
    Language Use in the Community
    Preference will be given to proposals that focus on the cognitive developments of language learning.

    The deadline for proposals is June 1 at 5 pm.
