Why this blog?

Why not?
We've been trying to learn languages all our lives and we're still embarrassed to hear ourselves order a meal in Spanish at a Mexican restaurant.  So far our success in the foreign language classroom has been measured by how well we can "fill-in-the blanks".
In our 21st century, where our voices can be "heard" instantly across the globe, we cannot communicate by "filling-in-the blanks".   Our language students need to be prepared for a more demanding and changing world.  We cannot settle with the traditional language classroom.  
It's time for a change, and that's exactly what I want to explore and share in this blog!☺
