This project was undertaken to develop a formal guide for planning foreign language teachers' conferences. This work is a response to the need for guidance in planning meetings expressed by past chairmen of the conferences of the Washington Association of Foreign Language Teachers. The project was conducted by: (1) researching both the published material on the subject (of which there is very little) and the unpublished material (taken from the files of former conference chairmen); and (2) requesting information, via letter, of all state foreign language supervisors (20 of whom responded). The guide, presented here, offers specific conference planning procedures, which include: (1) the mechanics of organizing a conference, (2) location planning, (3) speaker selection and direction, (4) suggested committees and duties, (5) exhibits, (6) program planning, (7) housing and boarding arrangements. Recommendations for further study are made, and a bibliography, checklists, and sample forms are provided. (LG)
