Development of lesson study or video exemplars –In & for diverse contexts, languages, levels, & regions –Enable close study of professional practices –Integrate standards, curriculum, assessment, & pedagogy –Include annotation & reflective questions –Use ICT as a tool for collaboration & dissemination across economies –E.g., math lesson study exemplar

Standards Developing standards that are sensitive to APEC contexts & 21 st century competencies –Consider three circles of English use English dominant, English bilingual/lingua franca & English as a foreign language –Investigate the suitability & adaptation of CEFR Learners –Communicative, intercultural competency Teachers –Teacher training (undergraduate & graduate levels) Programs

Assessment Appropriate assessment for diverse contexts, learners, & purposes Share assessment practices & tools in use across economies Link assessment to standards (especially high-stakes assessment) Assessment of both teachers ’ and students ’ language proficiency
