The first Virtual Idea Share will be 
​Thursday, November 4th from 4:00-5:00/5:30 pm
The South Dakota World Languages Association (SDWLA) is a South Dakota community of teachers that share ideas and information. The association accepts members who teach in the K-12 and/or university world language settings.

The SDWLA annual conference is an opportunity to learn about the newest trends and advances in the profession. The conference is the only available professional development opportunity in the state of South Dakota specific to language-teaching. Teachers will come away with a stronger knowledge of teaching practices, assessments, current trends and issues in the profession. The conference offers:
  • Breakout sessions, including presentations and workshops provided by faculty from regional universities, other experienced teachers and/or professional language specific speakers.
  • Language-specific business meetings
  • Opportunities to network with other language professionals in the state
  • Continuing education credit for attending the conference
We have compiled the survey results and are sharing them here for you to review (attached spreadsheet). As way of summary:
 
  • 66% would like to see opportunities for virtual (Zoom) idea sharing/socials between now and Fall 2022.
    • The first Virtual Idea Share will be Thursday, November 4th from 4:00-5:00/5:30 pm (we’ll see how it flows). We will send the Zoom link and additional information shortly, but please save the date!
  • 57% of the 30 respondents preferred to keep the conference in the fall.
    • The next SDWLA conference will be Fall 2022. More on this in a forthcoming email.
