FLTEACH Ancillaries

Primary FLTEACH Ancillaries
The materials on this page were developed to serve language teachers as part of the FLTEACH project.

FAQs
A number of particularly useful messages from common discussion threads have been collected in our FLTEACH FAQs. These Frequently Asked Questions touch on important topics such as classroom discipline, oral participation, student teaching, advice to new teachers, accent marks, etc.

Subscriber Biographies
FLTEACH subscribers are asked to complete a short biographical statement including teaching level, languages, school name, location, specialization, interests, and current projects. The FLTEACH biography collection can be searched by keyword but is not accessible through search engines such as Google..

FLTEACH Subscriber Statistics
Current FLTEACH membership includes many colleagues from widely different institutions across the US and around the world. Some graphs of FLTEACH subscription distributions across the country and around the world show how we have grown since Feb. 1994. We hope that FLTEACH will also be used to foster a community in which colleagues at all levels can seek information, resolve problems, and share ideas, outlines, handouts and other teaching materials, syllabi, and bibliographies.

FLTEACH Foreign Language Instructional Materials Database Online
The FLTEACH Foreign Language Lesson Plan Database is a free, searchable collection of culture-based lesson plans created and shared by language teachers. Materials submitted to the database should have strong cultural content and follow sound pedagogical models.
