The 2021 Central States Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages forged a fresh perspective for the organization with a virtual setting. Held March 11-13, 2021, the conference offered flexible scheduling for educators balancing a multitude of unique teaching situations in the midst of the COVID 19 Pandemic. The theme, "One Vision--Multiple Perspectives," encompassed a surprisingly deeper layer of significance during this year's conference. In a year when it would have been easy to step back, presenters, conference board, exhibitors and attendees stepped up to showcase cutting edge professional learning. At the 2021 conference, attendees chose from 25 workshops and more than 180 sessions focused on diversity, activities and strategies, curriculum development, assessment, culture, research, advocacy, and one of the most prevalent themes of the year, technology.
