A few years back teachers from San Diego had the priviledge of learning new strategies for serving language learners at the West Ed offices in San Fran. It was a dynamic and inspiring week that kicked off a strong and fruitful relationship with Dr. Walqui and her team. Although our learners' needs change and our world becomes more complex, our strategies do not have to. Walqui's work reminds us to focus on creating risk-free collaborative environments, both electronic and in person, that allow our learners to be creative communicators and develop speaking, listening, reading and writing skills in meaningful contexts.
