What is your Blue Sky Vision of success in language teaching and learning? We invite you to share your experiences and accomplishments from the field at CoTESOL's Annual Fall Convention on November 6-7, 2015. Our theme this year is Blue Skies, Bright Future and we are encouraging teachers, researchers, specialists, and leaders to submit a proposal to showcase efforts towards their Blue Sky Vision.

What do you do every day to support stakeholders in language acquisition and life skills? Share practical ideas that your audience will be able to take back to their workplace and apply immediately.  Plan a presentation around the specific content area you teach and how to support language learners in that subject. Demonstrate your use of technology in the classroom and how it encourages students to learn. Whether it is grammar activities, approaches to support listening and speaking skills, or vocabulary development, we are requesting that you submit a presentation from the work that inspires you daily. There are a variety of formats to choose from in which to organize and exhibit your work.

CoTESOL has long been an organization whose success has derived from its members. Help us remain one of the top TESOL affiliates in the country and share your experiences with others in the field of language learning. Partner with your colleagues or fly solo, either way your shared expertise and skills will shine! Proposals are submitted online. The deadline for proposal submission is Saturday, June 20, 2015. Let your Blue Sky Vision set the stage for another informative and enlightening convention everyone will be sure to enjoy.

Respectfully,
