Episode 24 (Season 3: Episode. 5): Motivating Teachers and Learners through Credentialing and Recognition with Dr. Mark Linsky

In this episode of the World Languages Collaborative Podcast with Dr. Mark Linsky, Grant and Mark discuss how teachers can transition from a grammar-driven, knowledge-based classroom to a more acquisition-driven environment while keeping stakeholders apprised of progress.

Also, they discuss how student and teacher recognition can motivate learners to improve and stay with language learning and teachers to continue in the profession. One of these strategies is awarding credentials such as the Seal of Biliteracy.
