The Language Resource Center of Columbia University, with the support of
the Consortium for Language Teaching and Learning, will host a symposium
entitled “Language Education in a Time of Crisis: Innovation,
Adaption, Transformation,” to take place on Columbia’s Morningside Campus
on May 10-11, 2019.

The symposium will address how language programs can and should adapt,
transform, and innovate to confront the challenges posed by the nationwide
decrease in language enrollments highlighted in the latest report from the
Modern Language Association. The presentations will showcase a number of
new and future initiatives, at Columbia as well as elsewhere, that seek to
increase enrollments and strengthen language programs in a number of ways.
These include transforming curricular models, pedagogical practices, and
programmatic emphases, as well as stimulating cooperation across
departmental lines and disciplinary boundaries.

Per Urlaub, Associate Dean of the Language Schools at Middlebury College,
will deliver the opening keynote, and Francis M. Hult, Professor, School of
Education and Communication, Jönköping University, Sweden, will give the
closing address.
